Hörmann side hinged garage doors – Expertly installed by our certified Hörmann team

As a Hörmann Approved Installer, we supply and fit the double leaf hinged garage doors – a premium insulated system designed for homeowners who want pedestrian access, robust security and a flexible configuration to complement the architecture of their property.

Why homeowners choose Hörmann side hinged doors

Perfect for maximising internal space

Hörmann side hinged garage doors are an ideal choice for compact garages. Because the door opens outward, you retain the full internal depth of the garage – no tracks, no overhead mechanisms, no intrusion into the usable space.

Everyday Convenience

The double‑leaf design allows you to open one leaf or both, depending on your needs. For quick access – bikes, tools, garden equipment – you simply open the pedestrian leaf. This reduces wear and makes daily use more practical.

Stable and safe in poor weather

Ground‑level door stays keep the leaves stable when open. This small detail makes a big difference in windy conditions.

Premium design built for everyday use

Hörmann’s side‑hinged doors combine robust engineering with clean, modern styling. Each door leaf features a 42 mm thick infill section, available in S‑ribbed, M‑ribbed, L‑ribbed and D‑ribbed designs, finished in the full range of Hörmann colours and decors. The structure is supported by 60 mm thick aluminium frame profiles, colour‑matched to the door sections for a seamless appearance.

Every door leaf is mounted on three sturdy hinges, with one hinge secured for added stability. All hinge components are finished in aluminium colour, giving the door a refined, consistent look from edge to edge.

You can choose a symmetrical or asymmetrical door layout, giving you the flexibility to match the design to your driveway and how you plan to use the garage. During your survey, we’ll help you identify the configuration that works best for your space and daily routine.

Practical, secure equipment built into every door

Hörmann side‑hinged garage doors come equipped with high‑quality components designed to make everyday use smooth, secure and reliable.

Each door features a three‑sided double door seal, along with a double lip seal at the threshold, helping to keep out draughts, dust and rain while improving overall comfort inside the garage.

FAQs

Are Hörmann side‑hinged garage doors available with insulation?

Yes. Hörmann offers side‑hinged garage doors with 42 mm PU‑foam insulation, designed to improve thermal efficiency and reduce draughts. This is ideal if your garage is used as a workshop or sits beneath a living space.

Can Hörmann side‑hinged doors be customised to suit my property?

They can. Hörmann provides a wide range of panel styles, colours, woodgrain finishes, glazing options, and handle designs. You can choose symmetrical or asymmetrical leaf configurations, add windows for natural light, and select from standard RAL colours or premium finishes. Matching side doors are also offered for a consistent exterior look.

What maintenance does a Hörmann side‑hinged garage door require?

A Hörmann side‑hinged garage door generally needs only light maintenance – periodic cleaning of the door surfaces, lubricating hinges and moving parts, and checking that the door leafs open and close smoothly. Regular upkeep helps preserve the finish and ensures long‑term reliable operation.
