Garage Door Types
Garage doors come in several types, each with its own style and mechanisms. Each type has its own advantages and can be chosen based on the user’s specific needs, such as space availability, aesthetic preference, and budget. Here are some common types of residential garage doors:
Roll-Up Garage Doors
Also known as coiling doors, roll-up doors are constructed from 2″ or 3″ steel slat sections that roll around a drum above the door opening. They are ideal for saving space as they do not require much room in the garage. They are often used in commercial applications but can also be used in residential garages with high ceilings.
Slide to the Side Garage Doors
These doors operate just as the name implies, by bending to one side of the garage and sitting parallel to the wall. These were among the first operating styles and were originally used for garages with little headroom. They run along lower trolleys that are flexible enough to work with slight slopes in the floor or ceiling.
Side Hinged Garage Doors
These are traditional style garage doors that open from a hinged frame on either side of the opening. They resemble large barn doors and are typically made of wood, although more modern versions can be made of various materials. They can be automated with special conversion arms.
Tilt-Up Canopy Garage Doors
Also known as up-and-over doors, these doors are made from one solid piece and swing out and upward into the garage’s ceiling space when opened. They leave about one-third of the door outside the garage, forming a canopy.
Tilt-Up Retractable Garage Doors
Similar to the tilt-up canopy design, these doors are also made from a single piece of material, but the retractable version pulls the whole door into the garage when it’s opened. It operates on independent tracks and requires more space than a roll-up door.
Glass or Full-View Garage Doors
Glass or full-view garage doors are constructed with large glass panels, often framed in aluminum or steel. They provide a modern and sleek look and allow natural light to enter the garage.
