Select side hinged garage doors, Audenshaw
A recent installation of high quality, side hinged doors for a customer in Audenshaw, Tameside. The door was installed onto an alluminium floor threshold that comes with these doors so that there are no gaps underneath. The doors close against weather seals all around the doors to keep it fully insulated. The thresholds also help if there is a slight slope of the drive.
Side hinged doors are still very popular for a lot of people. These Select garage doors are of a very high standard, featuring a solid locking system and very sturdy hinges that you cannot tamper with. The doors come in their own steel frame, which reduces the need for any timber frames and gaps around the doors.
As you can see from the work in progress pictures, we started by removing the old door and timber frame to leave us with an empty opening. We decide on the ideal fitting position of the door and then start to lay out the floor threshold with the aid of a laser level. Garage doors need to be installed level, but we find many floors are not as level. So to keep the gap under the door to a minimum, this is an ideal solution. It is cemented in with a nice solid mix and then we slope it neatly to meet the floor. The threshold sits on the floor at its highest end and is the perfectly leveled across.
When the threshold is fixed into place, we can then install the door using strong fixings to the brickwork. The job is finished off with uPVC trims around the frame and neatly sealed to the brickwork. The door also features “door stays” that hold the doors open and are simple to release. The handle and lock are sturdy stainless steel and the finish on the doors is a nice silk type finish.
Select side hinged doors are available in many colours and styles to suit any features on your house. Windows can be added to, even nice modern round windows. For a closer look, you can view the brochure here.
