Up and over garage doors

Up and over garage doors are designed with security in mind, offering a sturdy and reliable barrier for your garage. They come with multi-point locking systems and reinforced steel frames to prevent forced entry. Some models also include anti-lift mechanisms to deter break-ins. For enhanced security, we offer upgrades such as additional locking points, key-operated handles, and automation with rolling code technology for remote access.

Yes! Insulated up and over garage doors are available for those looking to improve energy efficiency and temperature control inside their garage. These models feature double-skinned steel panels with an insulated core, reducing heat loss and minimising noise. Insulation is particularly useful if your garage is attached to your home or used as a workspace, helping to maintain a stable temperature year-round.

Up and over garage doors come in three primary materials, each offering unique benefits:

• Steel – The most durable and secure option, available in a variety of colours and finishes.
• Timber – Provides a traditional, natural look, with hardwood options for added strength and longevity.
• GRP (Glass Reinforced Plastic) – A lightweight and low-maintenance choice that mimics wood grain but doesn’t warp or rot over time.

Each material can be customised with different colours, finishes, and window options to suit your style.

The key difference lies in the way the door operates and how much space it requires:

• Canopy Up & Over Doors – When open, about one-third of the door protrudes outward, creating a “canopy” effect. These doors are lightweight and cost-effective but are typically not suitable for automation.
• Retractable Up & Over Doors – The entire door slides back into the garage on tracks, making it a better choice for automation. These doors require more space inside the garage but offer a smoother operation.

If you’re considering adding an electric opener, a retractable up and over garage door is the better option.

Yes! Retractable up and over garage doors are ideal for automation. By adding an electric motor, you can open and close your garage door with a remote control, a smartphone app, or even voice commands with smart home integration. Automation provides enhanced convenience, security, and safety, as modern systems feature obstacle detection and automatic locking mechanisms. If you already have a manual up and over door, we can also retrofit automation in most cases.
