Why Cedar Wood?
Beautiful Timber | Great Durability | Resists Insect Attack & Decay | Weather Protection | Dimensionally Stable
The majority of Cedar Timber garage doors are constructed using Western Red Cedar, offering elegant period designs for various types of property. This timber is known for its exceptional beauty, richly textured woodgrain look combined with a palette of warm, mellow colourations, ranging from light amber to a deep honey brown.
It's fair to say that despite progressions within the garage door industry, to replicate the look of a timber garage door, no man-made material can truly duplicate the depths of cedar wood's natural lustre. It's subtle aroma remains for the duration of its long life span, and this characteristic fragrance adds another dimension to its universal appeal.
Cedar wood, especially Western Red, contains natural oils that act as preservatives to help the wood resist insect attack and decay. This dimensionally stable wood remains in a consistent shape, lying flat and keeping straight. All doors are hand prepared and finished to the highest standard and give full weather protection when fully furnished. When properly finished and maintained, Western Red Cedar ages gracefully and endures heavy use for many years due to its durability and stability.
Beauty aside, the purely practical pound-for-pound value of these doors against other timber offers more benefits: the cedar woods cellular structure creates interior air spaces that give it a secure level of insulation - much higher than that of most woods and much higher than brick or concrete.
Cedar wood’s natural grain and colour make it an excellent choice for many home styles. Whether you prefer a more rustic look or something modern, it is versatile enough to fit the bill perfectly.

Cedar Timber Garage Doors offer the ability to create your own unique design. Should a standard design be not quite right for you then talk to us and we can offer different designs, wider timber boards, odd shaped windows and so on.
It is also possible to have a pedestrian door inset into the main garage door panel to provide easy access to the garage without opening the whole door. This door can be on the left or right hand side and can be varied in size if required depending on the garage door design shosen.
