Garador has been turning heads recently with its selection of new grp garage doors that offer customers more choice and flexibility.
The new grp door range, available in a choice of 18 colours, includes both up and over and side hinged garage doors. Featuring glass reinforced polyester infill and promising low maintenance, the doors work practically as well as aesthetically with all different types of property.
Up and over garage doors such as the new Wiltshire garage door give the impression of a classically boarded timber door, but as they are produced using grp, they don’t require staining or maintenance like they would with a timber door. In addition, the Glastonbury and Somerset also deliver a vertically boarded appearance, and are available in various timber effect options such as Bleached Oak, Red Mahogany, Dark Mahogany, Irish Oak and many more.
There are also designs with more traditional Georgian panel pressed designs, such as the Kenmore and the Arden. These designs have the elegance of a more traditional door design, and also a realistic surface finish with the appearance of real wood grain.
The side-hinged garage door designs are available in two Georgian panelled designs, the Arden and Kenmore, and two boarded designs, the Dorchester and Somerset. These side-hinged garage doors are ideal for garages where there are obstructions immediately inside the garage, as the doors open outwards.
The latest Builders Merchant Building Index (BMBI) report shows builders’ merchants’ value sales in October were up +1.2% compared to the same month last year.
