Hörmann sectional door, Ashton, Tameside

Here’s a closer look at a Hörmann sectional type garage door for a customer in Ashton-Under-Lyne, Tameside, chosen in a rosewood finish to match other features on the house.

Sectional garage doors are one of the most secure doors you can buy. These doors ooze quality and have many beneficial features. One of the main advantages is that this door is fully automated and can be operated by one of the two remotes provided. Extras such as internal wall buttons can also be used. Customers often tell us on return visits to service doors etc, that upgrading to an automatic door is one of the best changes to their home. We aren’t just saying this either, customers truly appreciate these fine doors. If you park your car in the garage, there is no need to get out in the rain, or risking leaving your engine running while you are not in the car.

The doors are also fully insulated (unlike inferior types of sectional doors) and don’t require gaps around the door, like many manual doors do. This is a great advantage for anyone whos garage leads into the house, or if there are rooms above the garage. You will feel a big difference in winter. Security is also a huge benefit with these doors. There is nothing to tamper with and we rate them as the most secure door we install.

The door itself consists of four, hinged panels that open up and into the garage on a track system. The operator is shown in a picture here. The Hörmann Promatic operator is used to lift single doors, the Supramatic can lift heavier double doors or single doors. The Supramatic latest version has the capability to operate the door from your phone too, or connected smart watch etc.

Sometimes after removing the old door and installation, we find brickwork might need covering up where the old frame was due to staining or a cavity etc. In these cases, we can neatly box the door in with matching uPVC which also gives the door a nice neat, framed look. As usual, all old materials are removed from site by us and your home left nice and tidy!

Any automatic door we install also feature safety systems. With a sectional door, if it comes into contact with an obstacle, the door will sense it and stop and reverse. A yearly service benefits these doors to stay looking and operating just like new.
