Hormann timber doors are available in an extensive range covering traditional to modern styles with ‘leaded light’ glazing options available for a number of designs.
Up & Over Garage doors are available in two types of door gear:
Retractable mechanism
A retractable door is guided by horizontal tracks inside the garage and retracts completely when fully opened.
Retractable doors are easy to fit and can be automated with no loss of practicality or space.
Retractable door gear is available for all sizes of garage door.
Canopy mechanism
A canopy up and over garage door is very easy to fit, mounting into vertical tracks on the side frame of the door therefore using less space than a retractable mechanism.
When fully open a third of the door projects out of the garage opening forming a canopy. As a canopy mechanism does not swing open in the same way as a retractable, less space is needed to open the door.
However, CONVERTING a canopy door from manual to automatic is NOT advised as the conversion kit will drastically reduce the opening height of the door.
PLEASE NOTE: canopy doors are not available for double-door sizes. (9’0” or wider)
