Sectional garage doors have become increasingly popular amongst homeowners due to their convenience and ease of use. However, like most things in life, sectional garage doors have their pros and cons.
Let’s take a look!
The Pros of Sectional Garage Doors
Security
Sectional garage doors are known for their excellent security features. They are made up of several panels, which make them difficult to force open. Additionally, they have locking systems that prevent unauthorised access.
At JDUK we offer an anti-burglary safety kit that provides even better protection for your project. Our highly quality doors combined with our market-leading drive units are almost impossible to force open and the mechanism locks the door automatically, giving you extra peace of mind.
Durability
Sectional garage doors are made of strong and durable materials, such as steel and aluminium, which make them resistant to damage from weather, wear and tear, and other external factors. JDUK’s best-in-class sectional garage doors offer excellent longevity, so you can enjoy the security of your garage door for many years to come.
Versatility
Sectional garage doors are available in a wide range of styles, colours and finishes, making it easy to find one that best complements your project. With a wide range of textures and panel designs to choose from in both classic and contemporary styles, you have the opportunity to tailor the finished look of the garage door. JDUK also offers a variety of extra decorative elements such as glazing and decorative motifs.
Space-saving
Unlike traditional garage doors that swing outwards, sectional garage doors open upwards. This allows more space to be saved for parking cars on driveways as cars can be parked right up against the door on both the inside and outside of the garage which is ideal for homes with limited space.
Energy-efficient
Sectional garage doors are designed with insulation features, which helps you keep your garage warmer in winter and cooler in summer. This is ideal for properties that have access through the garage directly into their home, where a well-insulated garage door is essential to prevent heat from escaping.
JDUK offers a ground-breaking panel heat transfer coefficient of Up=0.48 W/m2K, giving one of the best insulated sectional garage doors the market has to offer. They are also designed to withstand extreme weather events, making them a superior option for insulation, weather resistance, and impact protection.
The Cons of Sectional Garage Doors
Cost
Some sectional garage doors can be rather expensive. At JDUK, we offer competitively priced sectional garage doors that do not compromise on quality.
Installation
Some people expect sectional garage doors to be more complicated to install. However, here at JDUK we provide a sectional garage door that installers find quick and easy, saving time and money. We also provide a great deal of training and guidance on the installation of our products on our dedicated videos page and on our YouTube channel.
Limited Headroom
Due to the operation of sectional garage doors, they do require a certain amount of headroom in order to operate properly. In some situations this is not ideal for garages with low ceilings, or those wanting to maximise the storage space in their garage by utilising overhead storage. Our range of sectional garage doors have been designed with this in mind to provide an ideal solution for garages with limited headroom.
Noise
Sectional garage doors can be noisy due to electronic motors. If noise is a concern when looking for your ideal sectional garage door, it is important to choose one from a manufacturer that provides quieter operation. Here at JDUK, we offer a range of fail-safe and smooth operating automation systems designed to quietly lift even the largest sectional garage doors.
