\"Side-sliding<\/figure>

Garage doors \u00b7 Steinau range<\/p>

Side-sliding sectional doors: keep the ceiling clear and enjoy flexible access.<\/h1>

Instead of moving up beneath the ceiling, the door slides sideways along the garage wall. This is ideal where the ceiling is low or already in use \u2013 and practical when only a small opening is needed for pedestrian access.<\/p>

When is it the right choice?<\/p>

A side-sliding door solves different problems from a door that moves up beneath the ceiling.<\/h2>

01<\/p>

Low ceiling<\/h3>

If the lintel or ceiling height is unsuitable for a conventional sectional door, a side-sliding system can provide an elegant solution to space constraints.<\/p><\/div>

02<\/p>

Ceiling already in use<\/h3>

Lights, roof beams, service pipes and cables or storage space remain usable because the door does not move into a horizontal position beneath the ceiling.<\/p><\/div>

03<\/p>

Quick access<\/h3>

You do not always need to open the door fully to take out a bicycle or a wheelie bin, or to pop into the garage.<\/p><\/div>

04<\/p>

Familiar panel appearance<\/h3>

As with a conventional sectional door, the door's colour, texture and decorative design can be chosen to complement the fa\u00e7ade.<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Technology<\/p>

An unobstructed side wall is the key requirement.<\/h2>

The door is guided at floor level and slides along one side wall of the garage. In the Steinau range, the system includes double-skinned 42-mm panels, an aluminium track, robust hinges and a low-profile floor track.<\/p>
