Side hinged doors tend to be made with real timber which can be very heavy and can rot, bow, crack and sag over time. Composite is a lightweight fibreglass type material that is used to build ocean-going yachts amongst many other things. It will withstand high salt levels and damp environments (i.e seaside locations) that timber will not, and doesnt warp or crack with changes in the weather. This makes it the perfect material whether you live by the coast, or simply wish to buy a beautiful, low maintenance door that will last a lifetime. It can simply be wiped clean to remove any dirt if needed.
The doors are made in a real timber mould, taking on the natural grain patterns for a realistic feel and look. The woodgrain doors are available in a beautful selection of finishes:
Bleached Oak*
Dark Mahogany*
Honey Beech*
Rosewood*
Ebony*
Black RAL 9005
Anthracite Grey RAL 7016
Agate Grey RAL 7038
Ivory RAL 1015

Steel Blue RAL 5011

The GDO composite side hinged doors come with a factory fitted steel frame for ease of installation. This frame is powder coated in three different colours (White, Brown or Black) to compliment the chosen colour of your new door.
Side hinged doors are great for garages with limited space inside, making full use of your internal space and also losing very little drive through width and height compared with other types of doors. They are handy if the garage is only used for pedestrian access, as half of the door can be kept bolted and you can make use of storage space directly behind the door.
If ordering a threshold strip this will be pre fitted to the door.
