Hormann Sectional Doors

Hormann Sectional Garage Doors

Firstly you may well ask - What is a sectional garage door? 

A world leader in garage doors Hormann offer the most complete range of sectional garage doors available in Europe. Standard UK sizes, standard European sizes and purpose made sizes in nearly all the different steel and timber designs are available.

Sizes

Hormann offer domestic sectional garage doors from 2 metres wide right up to 6.5 metres wide in most of the different designs available. Heights are available up to 3 metres. If you have a very wide garage Hormann can also offer a 'Combi door' which in essence is a commercial door specification for the operating mechanism but uses domestic insulated steel panels, this door is available up to a massive 7.5 metres wide!!

Designs

Choose from wide variations in the classic Horizontal ribbed design or 'Georgian' panelled designs. Variations in each design create a very different visual appearance. Some of the designs are only available in either the single skin LTE range or the double skinned 20mm and 42mm LPU40 range.  There are also a complete range of 'designer sectional doors' with artistic design elements incorporated into the door panels. These doors are all LPU 40 insulated panels with optional glazing elements.

These doors all have matching front entrance doors available for the perfect visual finish. 

The high quality timber sectional door range offered by Hormann again has 2 basic designs - the classic horizontal boarded design and the 'V panel' raised and fielded panel design - however the clever use of computer factory routing in either Nordic pine or Hemlock timber means you can create your own garage door design - a service offered by Hormann from their factory in Germany. Some standard designs are also readily available, a good example being the superb design 405, recreating a double leaf barn door effect with optional false hinges to finish the overall effect.

Finishes

Hormann steel sectional doors are finished as standard in white polyester paint (RAL 9016) - a finish which if you wish can be lightly rubbed down and painted. Most people don't bother to do this as Hormann offer a comprehensive factory finished RAL colour range as an optional finish to the exterior - over 400 RAL colours to choose from!

A limited range of RAL colours are also available at special prices with faster delivery times from Hormann - 16 colours to choose. The door panels also have subtle differences in that all of the door designs are either a woodgrain or silkgrain finish, woodgrain being as it describes - with a robust, woodgrain structured surface and silkgrain a smooth elegant surface with extra reinforcement in the exterior face of this option.

RAL 7040 Window Grey	RAL 7030 Stone Grey	RAL 7035 Light Grey	RAL 1015 Light Ivory	RAL 5014 Pigeon Blue	RAL 5003 Sapphire Blue
RAL 5011 Steel Blue	RAL 9006 White Aluminium	RAL 8003 Clay Brown	RAL 8001 Ochre Brown	RAL 8028 Terra Brown	RAL 3003 Ruby Red

More recently the Decograin laminate foil coated range has taken the UK by storm - 6 beautiful woodgrain laminate finishes with unique embossed graining offering either Golden Oak, Dark Oak, Rosewood, Light Oak and Night Oak as a fully finished surface with a 10 year guarantee - a perfect match to many Upvc windows and external timber features.

Mechanism

Hormann offer 2 basic operating type - tension springs in the side channels for doors up to 3048mm wide and overhead torsion springs for doors over 3048mm wide.

Side tension springs or 'Z track' sectional doors only require 100mm of headroom as the curve in the tracking can be a tighter radius than the larger doors.

Torsion springs or 'N track' sectional doors require 210 mm of headroom as the spring mechanism is directly above the top door panel and the track curve is not as tight.

All the larger sectional door systems have a low headroom option where the torsion spring is relocated to the rear of the horizontal tracks and the headroom requirement reduced to as little as 100mm. Final drive through heights are usually comprimised slightly with reduced headroom options as the bottom door panel section cannot be pulled fully clear of the opening - it is however always usually higher than an equivalent height up and over door.

Special requirements can be accomodated with extra high tracking available if the ceiling is higher than normal keeping the garage space clear.

'Combi sectional doors' with the commercial torsion spring system will require 390mm as standard as the spring is a lot bigger to assist the weight of the larger doors (up to 7500mm wide).

Features

Hormann sectional garage doors feature the following - as standard:

Fully sealed perimeter - with rubber seals and close fitting to steel framework. The large bottom rubber seal on a level floor will prevent leaves and dust, etc.

Vertical operation - meaning you can park your vehicle right up to the door inside or out and still open and close it.

Excellent security - provided by 5 encapsulated rollers in steel hinges either side of a standard door and a rotary latch locking mechanism with europrofile cylinder locking as standard - of course the double skinned doors are very strong against physical attacks.

Easy operation - due to the spring mechanisms assisting the door during most of the operation, unlike an up and over type, the doors are surprisingly easy to operate.

Powdercoat finishes - standard on all doors inside and out with bright white (RAL9016) finish externally and off white (RAL 9002) internally - no need to paint.

Remote control ready - due to the retractable tracking mechanism of a sectional door they are ready to have a standard boom operator fitted with no further adaptions.

Full drivethrough - no reduction in the drivethrough width - a 2286mm wide door gives you 2286mm when open. With the N track mechanism you get the full height and only lose approx. 50mm on the Z track mechanism when fully open.

10 year guarantee - on the entire door.

Options Many options are available in the sectional door range including:

» Windows for all designs in single and double glazed units
» Handle materials and colour options » Headroom arrangements including high lift tracking for high ceilings
» Extra wide doors with industrial specification operating gear
» Bespoke timber designs to your drawing design
» Matching Front Entrance Doors and side doors

A Short Video Below Shows the Hormann Sectional Benefits
  

Benefits

Sectional garage doors really do provide a secure, well sealed solution for any garage opening. The vertical opening is a major benefit for shorter driveways. The unrestricted drivethrough when open is a must for todays wider car designs. The all round sealing is perfect against our British weather. The double skinned door panels offer maximum insulation and strength for long lasting use. The excellent engineered gear mechanism gives very easy opening and closing when manually operated.

When you consider all the benefits a Hormann sectional garage door can offer it is hard to even consider any other type of garage door. The sectional door is also excellent value for money compared to any garage door the same size especially when you consider all the standard features not available on other doors. All Hormann sectional garage doors at any size can be manual or electric operation with a massive choice of control mechanisms from basic remote control to finger readers, timers, card readers and so on. You can create your own unique door with a tailor made access control system to suit your lifestyle and family environment.
