Garage doors \u00b7 Steinau range<\/p>

Up-and-over garage doors: a tried-and-tested classic, carefully planned.<\/h1>

A single door panel swings outwards as it opens, then slides back beneath the ceiling. The principle is robust and straightforward \u2013 but space in front of the garage must be deliberately allowed for.<\/p>

How it works<\/p>

A simple design still needs careful planning.<\/h2>

With an up-and-over door, the swing clearance in front of the garage must remain unobstructed. That is why we check the driveway, pavement, vehicle position and slope before recommending this type of door.<\/p>

01<\/p>

A straightforward door design<\/h3>

Few design complications and a tried-and-tested opening mechanism make an up-and-over door an appealing option for many traditional garages.<\/p><\/div>

02<\/p>

Versatile door panels<\/h3>

From understated steel designs to finishes that highlight the material, the large surface can be tailored to complement the building.<\/p><\/div>

03<\/p>

A good option for modernisation<\/h3>

Existing garages with a conventional opening can often be fitted with a new door without unnecessarily complex alterations.<\/p><\/div>

04<\/p>

Convenience with a door operator<\/h3>

Automation can be planned from the outset \u2013 including lighting, remote controls and further operating options.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Planning detail<\/p>

The space in front of the door is part of the design.<\/h2>

While a sectional garage door rises vertically, an up-and-over door swings outwards in an arc as it opens. With a short driveway, a public footpath or a steep slope, this can be a decisive reason to rule it out.<\/p>
