The diagram shows the key areas to be aware of when measuring and installing a Gliderol roller door to the inside face of a garage structural opening. The door also can be installed inbetween a structural opening but would require timber frame uprights to install the curtain guides and support brackets to and they would need to be the correct size width according to the requirements of the overall width for installation (see DIY guide). The curtain roll would also have to be accomodated underneath a lintel in most of the inbetween install scenarios requiring the creation of a false fascia of some kind to hide the roll from the exterior.
