The Benefits of Having a Side Hinged Garage Door

If you're currently looking for a garage door but having trouble finding one that best suits you, then you've come to the right place. We have a wide variety of different garage doors to choose from including roller, up and over and automatic doors. You may intend on using your garage quite frequently, so easy access would be ideal. There is one particular style which has been making a comeback recently; the side hinged garage door. We offer side hinged garage doors as we understand the great benefits they can offer to a homeowner, these benefits include:
  • No heavy lifting: There is a common problem a lot of people face with an up and over garage door and that's heavy lifting. It can be a slight hindrance to anyone that isn't quite tall enough or for people who haven't got enough needed strength to lift such a heavy object. Lifting garage doors can lead to injury, which is particularly concerning for elderly people. Having a side hinged garage door installed means you can open the door with minimal fuss and without the strain on your body.
  • Choice of different materials: When you think of a garage door, you may think of something quite bland and a bit of an eyesore, but there are plenty of different materials and colours for you to choose from. You can select the design and the material which best suits your needs and which most improves the aesthetics of your home. We have many materials available such as timber, PVC and steel, all of which are perfect for this style of door.
  • Automation: Having the luxury of an automated garage door is become an increasingly popular asset to many households. With an automated side hinged garage door you can drive straight into your garage without leaving your car, perfect for when the weather is bad outside. Although there is very little effort involved in opening side hinged garage doors manually, you can avoid juggling any items you're carrying and make moving heavy items in the garage much easier.
