Up and Over Garage Doors
There are two ways in which an up and over garage door can work:
- Canopy (where the open door protrudes out of the garage).
- Retractable (where the open door slides completely into the garage).
Advantages of up and over garage doors
- Available in a wide range of materials and finishes so you can achieve the look you want.
- Steel and fibreglass doors need no maintenance.
- Retractable types work well with an automatic opener.
Disadvantages of up and over garage doors
- They require space in order to open so you can't park right in front of the garage.
- They're not as secure as other door types, such as sectional or roller garage doors.
- They're not as tight-fitting as other door types, so may let in cold air or debris.
