The GDO Colby centre ribbed, behind fit, sectional door comes with a top quality build as standard then packed with potential for you to make the door your own. This classic design has the versatility to be styled in so many different ways. Available in 16 classic colours and a choice of smooth, sandgrain or woodgrain textures you can create your own look, from the timeless design of Rosewood with a woodgrain texture to the sleek look of smooth Anthracite panels – or anything inbetween - the possibilities to customise this door are huge.
This door is presented to you for behind fitting, with the door frame secured to the inside face of the garage, this enables you to maximise entrance width of the garage but will reduce the garage length by approximately 100mm. The nature of sectional doors is that they open vertically and allow you to make the most of your driveway space, parking as close as you like whilst still being able to open and close the door.
Manufactured in the UK to the highest specification, our range of GDO Sectional doors are made to measure as standard for the perfect fit. The 40mm thick galvanized steel panels are insulated with CFC free foam and come with the 4 sided weatherseal to ensure a high level of insulation to aid heat retention and energy efficiency, perfect for multi-functional garage areas. Combined with a sophisticated locking system the thick steel panels also keep your garage secure and protected from intruders.
To further aid security this door is compatible with the Dexxo Pro Intruder alarm kit. It is also suitable to be used with the remote controlled Somfy motors for automatic open/closing functions, controlled by either a wireless keypad or remote controls for access. See 'Options' tab for further details.

Additional Control Devices
We offer 2 additional wireless control systems to operate the door.
A wireless radio switch for internal use providing a simple wall mounted push button control.
A wireless radio keypad for external use and offering door control by inputting a code which can be set by the user. Both systems have batteries internally for their power.
Battery Back Up System
This is a great device if you do happen to have the odd power cut in your household of want a secondary back up because you don’t have easy access to your garage other than the garage door. It offers several full movements of the door even when the mains power has failed.
Emergency Manual Release
If you simply have no other doorway into your garage and the door is the only means of entry and exit, then you must have an external manual release system incorporated. Choose from a factory fitted system or a self install on site. This is a simple key release device connected to the manual release on the inside and enables you to pull the manual release from the outside once you have unlocked the key cylinder in the top panel.
Weather Seal
This is a floor mounted rubber seal which gives additional weather protection when the rubber seal on the door comes down onto it. it is only recommended for use on a garage floor which is in reasonable order and isn’t a replacement for broken concrete or a floor with a slope inwards.
No guarantee is given for a full seal but it certainly offers greater protection because of having rubber seal abasing rubber seal when used.
