Roller Garage Doors
Roller Shutter Garage Doors
Our electric roller doors are installed with a space saving tubular motor as well as a remote control and built-in safety features. Because of the design of an automatic garage door, they offer exceptionally high levels of security; once the door is closed it is locked into the side tracks, with no external locks or handles that can be forced open. So if security is of the utmost importance to you, we recommend roller shutter garage doors. Another high security door is the up and over style, which you will find on the dedicated up and over garage door page.
Benefits of Roller Shutter Garage Doors
- Compact design rolls up into a box assembly above the opening
- Leaves maximum driveway space in front of the garage door
- Smooth, quiet operation
- High level of security and weather protection
Installation
Roller garage doors are mounted on tracks that run up the side of the door. As the door rolls up it is stored in a barrel-like compartment at the top. If you have a short driveway which cannot accommodate a door with a swinging action, a roller shutter door could be your perfect solution as it does not obstruct any space which you might use to park in outside of your garage. All of our roller doors are installed with a hassle-free powder coating, available in a variety of colours and effects, from wood grain to a chic white.

Roller Garage Doors FAQs
Is electrical operation required?
Yes, roller garage doors require electric openers to operate. The door rolls up onto a barrel positioned above the opening. Motors are usually rated at either 1/2 horsepower or 3/4 horsepower and can be plugged into a 220-volt outlet or hardwired. Battery backup operation is available on some models in case of power outages.
Can roller doors be automated?
Roller garage doors can be automated with the addition of accessories. Remote controls allow operation from within the car or outside the garage. Wall-mounted keypads provide keyless entry. Smartphone apps give control using a mobile device. These automated options are convenient and add security.
How durable are they?
Roller doors are constructed from aluminum or steel horizontal slats that are extremely durable. The metals resist dents, bumps, and damage from impacts. The bending design of the panels allows them to withstand minor collisions and still operate properly. Proper maintenance helps maintain their durability for years.
Are there size limits?
Roller doors are well-suited for wide openings. Typical residential size limits are widths up to 16 feet and heights up to 10 feet. Larger commercial sizes are available up to widths of 22 feet and drops around 14 feet before guide tracks would be required. Their compact horizontal design makes roller doors ideal for wide, short openings.
