Side Hinged Steel Garage Door

A side hinged door is a garage door type which uses door panels vertically hinged at either side with the door leafs swinging outwards onto your driveway (inward opening is also possible). Galvanised steel is the most popular material used for this type of garage door in the UK and has all the right properties to maximise performance and overall specification.

Standard Steel Hinged Doors

You can buy single skin galvanised steel doors with panel pressed designs, standard and made to measure sizes and sizes generally up to around 10 feet wide, covering all single size garage apertures. The door designs available are standard designs with a range of standard sizes, but also made to measure too. These are best specified with the box section steel sub frame to remove any timber in the final installation and also give the best stability and longevity.

Insulated Luxury Side Hinged Doors

The best choice now is from a very wide range of double skinned galvanised steel, insulated side hinged doors, either in 20mm or 40mm luxury specifications. For these 40mm thick door panels the hinges, locking, weatherseals and handles can all be a far higher specification, providing the best overall integrity when installed with the aluminium outer sub frame.

The foam core insulated 40mm thick galvanized steel panels offer the best performance and give you the best possible doors for use on an integral garage or indeed any garage where you respect the internal atmosphere and contents more.

Choose from super modern designs with long stainless steel handles, matching so many front entrance doors these days, or far more traditional designs such as the 1940s style top glazed models which so many properties suit.

Usually installing a set of steel side hinged doors require the skill of a carpenter, however now it's far simpler. All modern steel garage doors are manufactured and finished as a complete ‘doorset’ - a door with all the right hardware, locking and sub frame to suit the door model, tested and certified for the performance. The door is supplied with everything ready to go, no further components required and no more costs to add..  Also pre finished in a factory environment of course so no painting required either!

The main advantage with these garage doors is the fact they operate as a dual-leaf door allowing the option to open either one or both sides. This can come in very handy when the garage is used as an office, gym, storage facility, utility room or used to store general everyday items such as bicycles, lawnmowers, ladders, motorbikes and washing machines which require regular, easy access from a reliable point.
