All of our Roller Garage doors are constructed from interlocking 77mm twin walled aluminium slats and filled with CFC-free insulating foam, which combines strength whilst helping increase energy efficiency with a typical U value of 5.2 w/m2 K. The doors can easily span an opening up to 5400mm wide and come complete with a heavy duty weather seal to the bottom section.
The door curtain is manufactured from corrosion-resistant aluminium and coated with an anti-abrasive polyester finish, which requires only an occasional wipe with a cloth and mild soapy water. A front fascia section and back cover (Housin Box) can be supplied as an optional extra, in either a white or brown finish.
✔ Security Locking is actively engaged by the anti-lift geometry locking straps when the door is closed.
✔ Safety All our Roller Doors are supplied with an infra-red photo electric safety beam as standard, which if the zone of the doors path detects an obstruction whilst closing, the door will automatically stop and return to the open position. This system has benefi ts over other manufacturers standard bottom rail safety devices, as it detects the obstruction before the door actually touches it, thus preventing possible damage.
✔ Adaptability Due to the design of our Roller Door, it can be adapted to accommodate most types of garages, even those with arches.
✔ Unique track well The guide rails are only available in a white or brown polyester powder coated finish and incorporate double neoprene and brush pile seals, which help prevent against draughts, whilst increasing the insulation value of the door. (Please note that the colour of the guide rails may vary slightly from the door curtain).
✔ Side plates Once fully retracted, the curtain is housed between two side plates, which locate into the guide rails via a cast aluminium leg. This helps distribute the weight of the door onto the guides, whilst simplifying the installation. The curtain is then assisted on its descent by two nylon rollers mounted onto the base of the side plates.
✔ Manual override In the event of a power failure, a manual winding handle ensures that the door can be opened from inside the garage. An external manual winding system is also available as an optional extra if there is no other available access into the garage.
✔ Remote control operation Each Roller door comes with remote control operation and 2 executive style compact handsets with key fobs. Rolling code technology ensures that security is paramount with a unique code generated each time the handset is activated. The remote control operation allows you to open and close the door from the convenience of your car –‘perfect for those wet and windy days!’ The control box has the option of a timed auto close facility and outputs for the connection of a separate 240 volt timed courtesy light and also for the connection for an internapush button or key switch.
✔ Headroom The tight roll of the door requires only 300mm of headroom for doors up to 3000mm in height. This allows additional roof space in your garage and maximises the drive through height for taller vehicles. Please note that approximately 70mm of the bottom of the door will be visible below the opening, when the door is in the open position.
✔ Side room The Roller door can be installed either within the opening (reveal fi x) if the side room is limited or behind the opening (face fi x), allowing any old timber frames to be removed and maximising the drive through width.
✔ Motors At the time of manufacture, all our motors are designed to lift at least double the weight of the door that they are being fitted to. They also have 2 limit switches for both the open and close direction, so if one fails, the secondary one is there for back up, thus ensuring a long and trouble free life.
✔ Guarantees All our doors come with a comprehensive return to base 12 months parts warranty.

Highly popular, stylish Hörmann designs that are outstanding in performance.
Your garage door opens faster, you can switch on the garage lighting separately and there are literally hundreds of additional control accessories that can be added to ensure complete control whatever your requirements.
Series 2000 steel doors are timeless in appearance, never ageing your property. Whether choosing one of the ribbed or panelled designs, they offer a quiet elegance blending in with any environment whilst giving a lasting prestige.
Note: Be careful when limited for width that you do not restrict access too much for getting a vehicle in and out.
✔ Extremely stable door construction The wide, galvanized block frame and horizontal door leaf reinforcements give the Hormann up-and-over garage door high stability.
✔ Rail guidance The precise rail guidance prevents the door leaf from derailing and also ensures smooth and easy door travel thanks to wear-resistant plastic rollers.
✔ Well protected The standard bottom threshold rail offers protection from rain and storms. If required, you can receive an optional rubber bottom profile for garages with continuous floors.
✔ Unique track well When the door is opened completely, it is cushioned by the stop and comes to a safe, reliable halt in the track well.
✔ Protection against trapping Flexible plastic rails between the door leaf and frame (no steel on steel), as well as additional protective caps over the lever arms, ensure effective protection against trapping. Due to the specially shaped lever arm the door pulls itself shut when closing.
✔ Multiple spring safety system If one of the springs breaks, the other intact springs support the door. The distance between the spring windings is so minimal that even children’s fingers are protected from getting caught.
✔ Break-in-resistant due to a unique rotary catch lock With this type of lock, the door leaf corners are fixed firmly to the frame, making forced opening practically impossible. You can additionally equip the door with top locking using an easy-to-fit retrofit kit.

Download BrochureThe canopy garage door is the simplest and most common type of garage door mechanism, its name derived from the fully opened garage door panel protruding about a third forward of the sub frame to form a canopy. It gives the maximum drive-through width when open and is the easiest to install. The door is balanced and assisted by torsion springs positioned above the door panel on the head of the fixing frame lifting the door panel by a pair of cables attached to a roller either side of the door.
The canopy door mechanism is generally only available up to 8 feet (2438mm) wide. It is not generally used if the garage door is to be automated although with the use of a good quality ‘bow arm converter’ and a reasonably powerful operator this type of door can
