What are up and over garage doors?
An up and over garage door is a single rigid panel that pivots outwards and upwards into the garage roof space when it opens. It runs on either canopy gear, where roughly a third of the door sits outside the opening when fully raised, or retractable gear, where the whole panel slides back inside on horizontal tracks.
Up and over garage doors for Leicestershire homes
Former mining towns have large stocks of 1960s and 70s housing with ageing single-skin steel doors.
In Leicestershire, the surveyor will check how your garage is built before recommending a specification, because the right up and over garage doors depends on the opening, the headroom and how you use the space.

Options for up and over garage doors
Canopy gear
The simplest mechanism with no horizontal tracks. It suits garages with limited side room, but you need a clear strip of drive in front while it swings.
Retractable gear
The panel travels fully inside on tracks, giving more drive-through height. It needs more headroom and a deeper garage than canopy gear.
Steel, GRP or timber panels
Ribbed, Georgian, cathedral and vertical-board designs in galvanised steel, glass-reinforced plastic or timber.
Manual or electric
Every door can be supplied with a lock and handle, or with a ceiling-mounted operator and remote handsets.
