As standard, every door has a robust handle, latch and deadlock with an adjustable keep for precise latching and an internal thumb turn for effortless operation.

Double seals to the door leaf and frame help protect against the weather and limit dust and debris entering your garage.

A gasket between the door leaf frame and insulated panel further helps seal the door against the elements.

The colour matched hinges are adjustable in 3 directions, allowing for easy alignment of the leaves, should it be required.

Concealed shoot bolts at the top and bottom of the inactive leaf hold the door securely in place. The adjustable keeps allow for easy alignment of the leaf position for a precise fit.

For an added level of security, 3-point locking with twin hook locks, is available as an option.

Stainless steel pull handles are a sleek alternative to the standard lever handle and are supplied with a ball catch and deadlock.

Doors are available in a classic ripple -textured finish in the solid colours shown below:

Painted doors give an outstanding finish compared to hand painted doors however they can be scratched or chipped by everyday use , refer to the internal label for care and maintenance of your door , The paint finish is cosmetic and the front panel should be uniform when viewed from 3 meters distance , we offer a 2 year warranty against paint failure, minor blemishes in the finish are inevitable .The rear of the door will not enjoy such a uniform finish by its nature and will have a different level of coating due to the manufacturing process however this does not affect the performance of the product and all doors are supplied galvanized and Painted or galvanized only giving outstanding external use. Doors fitted within 250m of the coast line (where the beach ends and the land begins) and inland estuary are exempt from the paint finish warranty and we recommend a GRP Composite material.

For delivery updates we will require our acknowledgement number from the order so we advise that you contact your supplier in the first instance who can discuss the arrival dates with you.

The last few years has seen changes in the garage door market in particular to the thousands of tons of plastic used to protect doors that ultimately is not recyclable and goes to landfill . Because of the improvements in galvanised steel and the paint finish now being powder coated and oven baked the need to fully protect the doors against the elements is no longer justified .Therefore the door you are currently looking at here will not come packaged , this will make it easier for you to check for marks and damage but will also mean that you need to take extra care in handling the product before installation.
