Up & Over Canopy

This is the traditional, single-sheet door that has been on UK garages for decades.

How It Works

The entire solid panel is hinged at the top. When you open it, the bottom swings outwards and the whole door lifts to a horizontal position, where it rests partly inside and partly outside the garage, forming a canopy.

Movement

Simple outward and upward swing.

Space

Needs clear space in front to open. Can feel a bit "heavy" to lift manually.

Look & Feel

Robust and classic, but can look a bit bulky when open.

Cost

Generally the most affordable option.

Up & Over Retractable

A step up from the canopy, offering smoother operation and better automation compatibility.

How It Works

Like the canopy, the door swings out and up, but the entire panel retracts fully into the garage on horizontal tracks. This keeps the door neatly tucked away when open.

Movement

Outward swing, then retracts inside on tracks.

Space

Still needs some clearance in front, but offers a cleaner look when open.

Look & Feel

Neater appearance when open. Better suited for automation.

Cost

Slightly more than canopy, but offers better long-term value.

Roller Shutter

A modern, space-saving solution that's becoming increasingly popular.

How It Works

Made up of horizontal slats that roll up into a compact drum at the top of the opening. No swing-out, no tracks running into the garage.

Movement

Vertical roll-up into a compact coil.

Space

Maximises drive-through width and internal ceiling space. Perfect for tight driveways.

Look & Feel

Sleek, contemporary appearance. Available in various colours and finishes.

Cost

Mid-range pricing with excellent security features.

Sectional Doors

The premium choice for insulation, security, and a polished finish.

How It Works

Composed of horizontal panels that rise vertically and then slide back along the ceiling on tracks. No outward swing at all.

Movement

Vertical lift, then horizontal along ceiling tracks.

Space

No front clearance needed. Ideal for short driveways or where space is tight.

Look & Feel

High-end appearance with excellent insulation properties. Wide range of designs available.

Cost

Premium option, but offers the best insulation and longest lifespan.

FAQ

READ OUR TIPS & ADVICE FOR YOUR GARAGE DOOR

Yes! We offer a range of styles, colours, and materials to suit your home's look. Let's walk you through the options during your free consultation.

Frequent repairs, visible wear, poor insulation, and outdated safety features are key signs. We'll assess your door and let you know if repair or replacement is the better value.

Most garage doors last 15 to 30 years depending on the material and maintenance. If yours is nearing that age or showing damage, we'll help you explore modern, efficient replacements.

It's a complex process involving heavy lifting, spring tension, and alignment. Our trained fitters ensure a safe and seamless installation—ask us for a quote.

Steel, aluminium, and vinyl doors are great low-maintenance options. We can help you choose the right material and finish for your home—just book a free site visit.
