Timber vs Metal Which is best for My Property

Metal and timber are the two most popular and common materials used for making garage doors. If you are considering having a new garage door installed but unsure on which material is best for your property, we can help. Each material has its qualities but it is down to you on which one you think is best; by reading out helpful tips you may find your answer. The Beauty of Timber Having a timber garage door is perfect for those of you who live in the countryside or have a period home as your garage can then suit the rest of your property. Not only do they look aesthetically pleasing and a great focal point, but they also offer natural insulating properties too. Wood is also a natural sound barrier, so if you are using your garage for a hobby which is particularly loud, a timber garage door will minimise any noise pollution. They can also be manually or automatically operated just like other garage doors and are made from strong and long lasting types of wood, enabling them to be a naturally secure choice.
Metal at Its finest Metal garage doors are extremely strong and durable, making them an excellent choice if you are looking for security. As many metal garage doors are made of galvanised steel, they won't rust and will require very minimal maintenance. Due to the vast range of designs and colours available on the market, a metal garage door can complement properties from modern and stylish to classic and traditional. High quality sectional metal garage doors can be filled with rigid foam which provides excellent insulation properties, ensuring your garage stays warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
