Quality Manual & Electric Sectional Garage Doors

Sectional garage doors use horizontal panels that lift upwards and slide back into the garage on tracks. Unlike up-and-over doors, they do not swing outwards, making them ideal for short driveways, larger vehicles and homes with limited space in front of the garage.

  • Space-saving vertical opening that lets you park close to the door without blocking movement, making it ideal for short driveways and larger vehicles.
  • Strong insulation options to reduce draughts, improve comfort and support garages used for storage, gyms, workshops or utility space.
  • Secure, weather-resistant design with robust panels, reliable tracking and a close-fitting finish to help protect your garage and belongings.
  • Made-to-measure manual or electric styles available in insulated, steel, timber and GRP options, with a wide choice of colours, panel designs and finishes.

At CDC Garage Doors, we supply and install manual and electric sectional garage doors across Sussex, Surrey and Kent, helping you choose the right material, insulation level, operating system and finish for your home.

Sectional vs Up & Over Garage Doors

Sectional and up-and-over garage doors are both popular choices for homeowners, but they work in very different ways. Choosing the right option depends on your driveway space, insulation needs, budget, preferred style and whether you want manual or electric operation.

CDC - GRP- Verwood

Up & Over Garage Doors

An up-and-over garage door opens as one solid panel, moving outwards and upwards before resting above the garage opening. This traditional mechanism is simple, reliable and often a cost-effective choice for homeowners replacing an older garage door.

Up-and-over doors are a popular option for those who want a practical, durable and good-value garage door with a range of styles available.

Sectional Garage Doors

A sectional garage door opens vertically in separate horizontal panels, which slide back into the garage on tracks. Because the door does not swing outwards, it is ideal for short driveways, larger vehicles and homes where space in front of the garage is limited.

Sectional doors are often the best choice for homeowners who want a secure, insulated and premium-looking garage door.

I have dealt with Alan and CDC on several projects through my workplace, our clients and I have always been very pleased with their service so I decided to use them on my own property. Over the moon with my new sectional door, looks stunning and the fitting team were very friendly, polite and carried the work to a high standard. Would definitely recommend and will continue to use one work projects. Thanks Alan, Colin and the team! Anna

When Colin came to run us through all the options he was very knowledgeable, explained everything and was very patient with my many questions. After confirming and paying the deposit, the door was manufactured very quickly and installed within 3 weeks. The door itself is high quality, installation is exactly as agreed and the installers left the place spotless.

I contacted Simon Wallace from CDC Garage Doors a year ago with a tentative enquiry for a single white roller shutter to replace my old up and over manual door. He was very responsive and helpful at the time but I didn't go ahead as I thought we could make do with the manual garage door. Then a month ago my wife's new car was vandalised so I decided to clear the garage so that she could park it safely indoors. I reached back out to Simon who was more than happy to help. He offered a great price and visited site to measure up within a week. I paid the deposit and the fitters came a few weeks later once the door had been delivered. Peter and Mason did a wonderful job of the installation, the service was excellent and the finish was immaculate. Timea in the accounts department has been very helpful with the invoicing and logistics too. I'd recommend this company to all my friends, family and clients and wish I had pushed the button (no pun intended) sooner. Look no further than CDC Garage Doors.

Excellent service. Straightforward and sensible advice given pre-fit, and then double garage door fitted very neatly with no fuss in a single afternoon, with old door removed and site left spotlessly clean. Also great aftersales and refund when I decided threshold strip not required. Would definitely recommend for workmanship from good local firm.
