Steel Garage Doors that look like wood

Low maintenance with one of the many steel garage doors with a wood design laminate surface...


So many options are now available in the UK for garage doors that look like wood with a very tough laminate coating applied to either steel or aluminium. The laminate coating is available in some very popular finishes such as Golden Oak, Mahogany and Rosewood for most types of garage door, but also available in a wider variety of finishes in the SeceuroGlide, Gliderol and Novorol insulated aluminium roller shuter door ranges.

These offer up to 45 different timber effects including variations of oak which are very effective indeed.
The coating generally has a 10 year guarantee and only requires the occasional wash or wipe with mild soapy water to bring it back to life.

The cost of this superb finish option is usually only around 10% more on the actual door price itself over a standard paint finish and therefore considerably less money than actual timber.

The beauty of timber at half the cost without the maintenance!!  What more do you need?

See the ranges available from Hormann and Garador in their sectional and up and over doors, Novoferm, Gliderol and Seceuroglide for their roller shutter doors, Carteck for their side hinged and sectional doors and Vertico for the aluminium round the corner door option.
