Cedar Door Southwell Garage Door Timber Cedar Timber Up And Over Doors

The Cedar Southwell door has been designed to resemble a pair of traditional top glazed side hinged garage doors however they are still up and over doors. These will compliment the more traditional built homes. The Southwell is constructed with an outer frame housing and vertical tongue & grooved boards in the lower section of the door which are glue bonded to the rear solid cross rails of the door. All doors are supplied basecoat treated as standard.

An attractive timber door, manufactured from selected cedar wood. Mounted within a pre-finished aluminium boundary frame with steel bracings to reinforce the panel, this door is extremely stable and durable.

Retractable Door Gear
The top tracks of a retractable gear are shaped in a 'C' profile to prevent the rollers from slipping out. The 'C' shaped tracks run horizontally into the garage and are suspended from the ceiling.

Steel top weatherstrips are included for strength and additional security along with heavy duty lifting arm brackets which support the strong boxed profile lifting arms. Attached to the arms is a multi-spring arrangement with finger safe springs; these are adjustable to counter balance the weight of the door to ensure a smooth and easy operation. Below the lifting arm brackets is the lower rubber weather strips which minimize draughts.

Trackless canopy gear is available on doors up 8ft wide (but not recommend).Retractable operating door gear is our standard option with standard T-handle locking; Euro locking is optional.

Locking System
Locking system on retracting doors includes two steel spring loaded slam latches located at the bottom corners of the door with cables attached to the internal swivel handle. Due to the nature of the top steel weather strips interlocking behind the lifting arm brackets, the door is fixed in four points when closed.

Using traditional jointing and door construction methods together with modern assembly and gluing techniques, Cedar Doors are able to build a door panel which is both strong and durable whilst requiring very little maintenance.
