Types of Garage Doors
We offer a wide range of garage door styles to suit every home and preference:
Sectional Garage Doors
Sectional doors are the most common type of garage door for residential use. They consist of panel sections connected with hinges. As the door opens and closes, wheels at the edge of each panel roll inside a vertical track on each side of the door opening. The hinges between each panel section bend over a curved portion of the track. This design allows the door to sit parallel to the ceiling when fully open or in line with the walls when completely closed.
Roll-Up Garage Doors
Roll-up doors, also known as coiling doors, are made of horizontal slats that roll around a drum above the door opening. These doors are typically made of steel and are more commonly used in commercial or industrial settings, but they can also be an excellent choice for residential garages with limited ceiling space.
Slide to the Side Garage Doors
Slide to the side garage doors operate exactly as their name suggests – they slide to the side instead of lifting upward. This type of door is mounted on a track that runs along the width of the garage opening. When opened, the door slides along the inside wall of the garage.
Side-Hinged Garage Doors
Side-hinged garage doors are traditional swing-out doors that operate like a pair of large gates. They are hinged on either side of the opening and swing outward to open. This classic design is often used to create a carriage house look.
Tilt-Up/Up and Over Canopy Garage Doors
Tilt-up canopy doors consist of a single solid panel. When opened, this panel tilts up and out from the garage, creating a canopy effect outside the garage. The door retracts completely inside the garage, parallel to the ceiling.
Tilt-Up/Up and Over Retractable Garage Doors
Similar to canopy doors, retractable tilt-up doors also consist of a single panel. However, instead of creating a canopy outside the garage when open, these doors retract completely into the garage space.
