Whether they’re Hormann garage doors, or another top garage door brand, up and over garage doors have some great benefits, including benefits to security, practicality, and aesthetics.
In this short article, we look a little deeper into each of the 4 top benefits of having up and over garage doors fitted, whether they’re aluminium garage doors, timber garage doors, or steel garage doors.
Due to their simple yet highly-effective design, up and over garage doors require surprisingly little maintenance. That said, there are a few DIY maintenance tips we’d suggest, to help keep your up and over doors in great working order.
When choosing your garage door supplier, choose one that also offers a garage door maintenance and repair service, for both an annual inspection, and to carry out emergency or general repairs should you need them.
If you’re looking for a garage door with exceptional security benefits, you can’t go wrong with a high-quality, up and over garage door, be it an aluminium up and over garage door, or a timber or steel version.
The basic security features of a good up and over garage door from a reputable garage door provider, are the rigid steel subframe and the four point locking mechanism, which should include a euro profile cylinder locking system.
And, should you want to enhance the security of your up and over garage door, options include installing an additional lock, such as a garage door defender, or installing external security, such as CCTV or motion lights.
When we refer to simplicity in terms of opening garage doors, we’re referring to the speed and ease with which they open and close, especially on those frosty mornings, or if you have limited upper body strength.
Because of their spring-loaded design, there are few garage doors that are easier to open and close than up and over garage doors, even if you do have certain mobility issues that prevent you reaching upwards.
When you buy garage doors, whether up and over, roller garage doors or side-hinged garage doors, as well as looking at the security and practicality benefits, you also want a garage door that suits the look of your property.
Luckily, one of the key benefits of up and over garage doors is their versatility in design, including the style and colour of the panels, and the material it’s made from, which could be timber, aluminium or steel.
