A traditional door mechanism matched with convenient insulating properties, insulated side hinged garage doors are a hugely popular choice.
Gone are the days where side hinged doors could only offer traditional, timber side hinged garage doors! This classic door type is now available in not only single skin steel, but insulated double skin steel too, along with various design options and finishes.
What Can Insulated Side Hinged Garage Doors Offer?
Often, the primary reason why one may choose to invest in a pair of side hinged garage doors is because they offer easy access for both pedestrians and vehicles. The side hinged door type also proves to be particularly popular for those who don't just store a car in their garage.
Many people now use their garage as a storage space with various valuable items, or even as an additional room to the house. If this applies to you, it is in your interest to make sure the garage door offers good performance levels and isn’t just filling a hole. A high quality door is especially important when the garage is integral.
Our top of the range double-skinned side hinged doors not only offer effective insulation, but also a significant level of strength, and therefore great security when the correct locking is incorporated.
Side Hinged Benefits:
- Appreciate the traditional mechanism of side hinged garage doors with the modern qualities now available, including effective insulation
- Keep your garage warm in the winter and cooler during the summer months
- Benefit from acoustic insulation
- The thicker door leaf is insulating, as well as in-turn creating a door with greater durability and physically stronger properties
- Our insulated side hinged doors are bespoke and made to measure, meaning a snug fit is guaranteed and insulation is enhanced
High grade stainless steel handles and lock covers are standard and offer a tough attractive finish to the overall visual appearance. The double deadbolt locking is extra secure and the locking mechanism is situated behind a tough cover strip, fitted on the leading door panel. |
High quality aluminium hinges are fitted as standard with secured hinge bolts, making it extremely difficult to lever the door open. Easy adjustments are possible for fine-tuning the door leaf operation. 2 or 3 hinges are fitted to each leaf depending on the door size ordered. |
Double seals and mitred corners make the Teckentrup side hinged doors exceptionally draught and rain proof. In addition to a seal on every edge of the door panel, there is also rubber sealing to the aluminium fixing sub frame. |
The inactive garage door leaf is secured with flush fitting bolts to the top and bottom, and at the bottom is further enhanced with the standard feature of a rot proof floor seal and threshold, further increasing the sealing properties and security of this door. |
Door stays are fitted as standard, protecting your door panels from slamming closed or flying open on windy days or smashing into objects/ your vehicle. These door stays are top grade spring dampened with easy adjustment. They are desinged to hold the door panel open at 90 degrees. |
