Technical Information

(1) Face Fix - Installation Here the inside edge of the guide rails line up with the brick opening. However the flush fitting end plates and flat design of the guide rails make the size of the door and positioning of the guide rail less critical. A subframe is not required unless the structure is very uneven. Moreover, if maximising the width of the opening is not important, an existing subframe can be retained with the door installed in line with the timber opening. If required the guide rails can overlap into the opening by up to 25mm on each side.

(2) Reveal Fix - Installation in the Door Opening or Between Walls If the door is manufactured to the exact opening width, it can be installed within the aperture. This may also depend on the available headroom above to accommodate the coil. If the coil is going to be visible from the outside, an external 90O facia will be required.

(3) Headroom Requirement The small coil diameter is one of the doors strengths. Just 300mm headroom is required inside the garage for doors up to 2500mm opening height and 350mm for doors up to 3500mm opening height. Where the available headroom is severely restricted the compact door requires just 205mm headroom for doors with an opening height up to 2150mm. Alternatively the compact door can be fitted externally. We strongly recommend that a minimum 55mm of bottom slat should hang down into the guide rails when the door is fully raised. Below this is the drive through height.

Choose Door Dimensions

Please note that the width you need to provide is the actual OPENING WIDTH. The correct DOOR WIDTH for that opening will then be calculated automatically.

If you need help in measuring for your garage door please send us a survey sheet and we will help you measure.

Opening Width: mm / Height: mm

Our roller doors are available in a variety of widths up to 5m wide and 3m high. Because the curtain sits behind the brickwork, they are ideal for arched and unusual garage openings.

Requiring no frame, installation is easy and provides the maximum possible garage door opening width, even for the wider vehicle.

Whilst manual doors can be easily converted to automatic later, there is a significant cost saving if the unit is factory-fitted at the outset.

Headroom Clearances

Nominal Opening Height	Clearance Required
UP TO 2135mm	420mm
UP TO 2440mm	450mm
UP TO 2740mm	480mm
UP TO 3055mm	520mm

Doors require an extra 20mm side clearance on the side the drive unit is required to be fitted.

The diagrams show the relation of doors to the horizontal and vertical brick opening.

Please note that many more widths of doors are available than shown in the drawing.

The windlock System should be specified for double doors in very exposed locations. In these instances, greater side room clearance is required.
