Hormann LPU 42 M Ribbed Woodgrain Garage Door Hormann Steel Sectional Doors

Design & Appearance

The M-ribbed design features medium-width horizontal ribbing that creates a contemporary, clean-lined appearance ideally suited to both modern new-build properties and renovation projects. The authentic Woodgrain surface finish replicates the look of sawn timber with a robust, textured coating that brings character and warmth to the door, while the bright white colour ensures the garage blends seamlessly with render, brick, or painted exteriors on traditional and contemporary homes alike.

Thermal Performance & Comfort

This LPU 42 door features 42mm thick double-skinned steel sections with integrated thermal insulation, delivering a U-value of 1.3 W/m²K for excellent heat retention that keeps your garage noticeably warmer in winter and cooler in summer. The high-specification thermal barrier helps maintain stable internal conditions, reduces condensation risk, and creates a more comfortable environment - particularly valuable where the garage connects directly to the house or serves as a workshop, gym, or hobby room rather than simple storage.

Operation & Security

The vertical-lift sectional design glides smoothly up into the ceiling space on precision-engineered tracks, allowing you to park right up to the door both inside and outside without worrying about swing clearance. Patented tension spring technology, secure roller guides in safety tracks, and comprehensive finger-trap protection on all sections combine to provide quiet, reliable daily operation with exceptional safety and a reassuringly solid, secure feel - especially when paired with a Hörmann electric operator.

Why Choose This Model

Choose the M-ribbed Woodgrain white door if you want proven LPU 42 thermal performance in an affordable, low-maintenance finish that suits almost any architectural style. The woodgrain texture helps minor scratches blend in and can be easily touched up, making this an excellent practical choice for busy family homes where the garage door sees frequent daily use.

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. 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.
