This sectional garage door was installed in Mollington, Oxfordshire. Originally a garage comprising of two up and over doors and a central pillar, we removed these and replaced with this stunning double door. Sectional doors can be painted to any RAL number, perfect for matching to window frames or a front door. Our customer chose RAL 9001 (Cream) which is becoming an increasingly popular colour with our customers. RAL specific doors also come with a choice of Woodgrain or Smooth finish, our customer chose Smooth. We think it looks simply stunning!

This stunning dark oak sectional garage door was fitted in a beautiful rural setting in Gloucestershire. Comprised of individual sections connected together by hinges, the door opens vertically into the garage and with no ‘kick out’ as it moves, enabling you to drive right up to the entrance. Built with high quality materials, incorporating the latest innovations in manufacturing technology together with a wide choice of options, gives your garage an individual look.
Here the customer has chosen Dark Oak finish, one of six available weather-resistant, top-coated film laminates in authentic, rustic wood effect, with a smooth surface.
The doors are also insulated, which provides both a thermal and acoustic barrier and with the addition of a Novomatic 563 motor, fully automated.
This garage has no other means of entry so an Emergency Release System has been installed (if you look closely you can see a small circle in the centre of the door) so should power fail, the door is still operable.
Installed in a village near Gloucester, GL2

What’s behind your garage door? I wish I could say an Aston Martin but unfortunately, like most home owners, the contents of my garage are far less glamorous.
What you use your garage for, what you keep inside and how you access it are important points to consider when choosing your new garage door.
Are you popping into your garage a lot? Does it house your lawnmower? The kids bikes? Maybe the tumble dryer? The answer for you could be a 70/30 side hinged garage door. With pedestrian access, these doors are perfect for when you want to pop in the garage without having to open the entire space.
Do you have visions of converting your garage to a home gym? Maybe it acts as a workshop or business space? Then an insulated roller or sectional garage door could be the answer. They provide a much tighter seal around the opening than your standard up & over and the CFC-Free foam core provides excellent heat insulation, keeping the cold out and the warm in. The insulation also acts as a sound proof so if you are working out your neighbours are less likely to hear you grunt as you ‘feel the burn’!
Perhaps your garage stores all your worldly goods and you are concerned about security? A Secured by Design up and over garage door comes with additional heavy duty strengthening ribs, heavy duty springs, secure locking brackets and a reinforced locking barrel which includes a key to lock and unlock from inside your garage. Perfect if you are especially worried about security!
Then an automated door is for you! Imagine driving home, in the pouring rain, pressing a button and sailing into your warm dry garage! No stopping, no getting out, no wrestling with the lock. A simple luxury but oh so gratifying! Roller and sectional doors often come fully automated but you can also add a motor to your existing up and over and side hinged garage door. Contact a specialist for advice.
Many of us now have larger than average vehicles, we love a 4×4 or an SUV and our poor old garage just can’t accommodate! If you’re looking to increase drive through width and height then consider a roller door which fits behind the brickwork. Assuming you have the head room required for the roll box, maximum drive through width and height can be achieved.
This option is not just for larger vehicle owners. Standard size saloon cars can struggle. One customer, after purchasing a new car, needed to fold the wing mirrors in to drive into her garage. The solution was to fit an up and over door behind the brickwork, read more in their blog post.
Looking for the ‘wow’ factor?For a simply stunning makeover to your home consider a matching front door and garage door. With over 24 colours to choose from, numerous designs and glazing and hardware options, you can reinvent the look of your home by simply upgrading your external doors.
Then the Cardale Merlin is perfect for you! With prices starting from just £475 fully fitted, this canopy up and over garage door provides you with functionality at an affordable price. Quality is not comprised as you will receive the same ten year warranty which comes with all Cardale garage doors.
However you use your garage, whatever your budget, there is a garage door perfect for you. The range of designs, materials and finish is larger than it has ever been before. Consult with a garage door specialist to find the perfect solution for you and your home.
We were contacted last year by a customer in Warwickshire who was looking to update their garage doors.
They wanted the main door to be automated but with a wicket door to provide pedestrian access. They also needed a smaller pedestrian access door to the side.
The customer chose the Novoferm iso45 Flush design in Smooth Woodgrain Golden Oak for the main door. The door opens vertically into the garage and with no ‘kick out’ as it moves. It is double-skinned and fully insulated. Sectional doors are comprised of individual sections connected together by hinges. All sections are manufactured from hot galvanized thin steel sheet and provided with a polyester-based pre-finished coat or, in the case of Golden Oak, a durable foil finished coating.
Angular frames, guide rails as well as all fitting parts on the garage door are also galvanised so that no rust can start to form. The flexible lip seals between the sections fit softly even at low temperatures and prevent any heat losses and dust from penetrating. A rubber profile on the bottom edge of the garage door guarantees optimum protection from water and dirt, evens out slight floor unevenness and prevents damage and injuries. The floor seal is made of high-quality EPDM (ethylene propylene diene monomer), which is known for its high elasticity, weather resistance and long life-span.
The addition of a wicket door to your sectional door offers a practical passage width of 80cm and provides perfect heat insulation due to the double-skinned insulation used.
The customer wanted the door automated so we fitted the Novomatic 553 which comes with automatic safety features and will stop and reverse the door operation, when it senses an obstruction, making a safely automated door. We also added a Wireless Key Pad so the customer doesn’t need to use a remote control, they can just tap in their numerical code and the door will open.
Unfortunately the space for the personnel door was too small to accommodate the matching equivalent and so the customer chose the Cardale Gemini steel personnel door, again in fully finished Golden Oak. Personnel doors come with secure Euro profile night latch and deadlock and four anti-drop anchored bolt hinges.
These sectional and personnel garage doors were installed near Shipston on Stour in Warwickshire. The doors come with a ten year manufacturer warranty and the motor with a five year warranty.
