A double garage door is designed to accommodate larger garage openings, typically for homes with two-cars to park side by side simultaneously but can be oversize for extra space. The main benefit is convenience.
Engineered to perform – the best made doors have reinforced panels and stiffened frames to mitigate the greater stress they endure due to their size. They also have precision-engineered torsion springs, track systems, and strengthened roller mechanisms to ensure effortless operation. This ensures that they operate quietly and reliably. The most popular types are sectional garage doors and roller garage doors.
If you already have two separate doors – consider opting for a single, cohesive design. We can restructure your garage access to accommodate a double garage door that provides extra width. Garage door widening is all about improving manoeuvrability. Challenging turning circles, inefficient drive layouts, and restricted access can be addressed with structural modifications and enhancements which require carpentry and construction expertise – skills our team can provide.
Larger openings are thermally demanding – after all increased surface areas create more heat loss – but should energy efficiency be a requirement, bigger garage doors with full-perimeter weather seals and multi-layer insulated panels will help.
Bear in mind – there is room to experiment with design. Double garage doors provide larger canvases for customisation. Features like decorative windows, embossed panels, and woodgrain finishes standout and offer opportunities to tailor for individual taste.
Wider than the average size double garage door Super-Size doors start above 5.5m (18’0”) wide and reach 8.0m (26’3”) wide in a single span – making them suitable for triple garages or larger. Experience safe operation with direct drive systems, strong lifting mechanisms, and up-rated fittings for load bearing elements.
Double garage doors are heavy, so when automated, they require more power than a single door to ensure smooth, efficient operation – that requires a good quality drive system. We will always make sure that motor performance and garage door are matched perfectly based on manufacturer’s guidelines. We think it’s important to get this right because it extends product lifespan!
