As standard, all side hinged garage doors include: heavy duty steel hinges, a pair of solid garage door stays, centre style for maximum security, weather seals, Euro dead locking latch, black lever handles inside and out and are supplied pre-fitted with frames for ease of installation.
Side hinged garage doors are manufactured with equal sized leaves and open outwards to maximise available clear space inside the garage. As standard the right hand leaf (viewed externally) opens first – left hand leaf opening is available on request.

Hinged Garage Doors FAQs
How much clearance is needed for a hinged garage door?
You will need around 100mm or 4 inches of clearance on each side of the door to allow it to fully open and close. This accounts for the door swinging outwards in an arc. Make sure there are no obstructions like walls, pipes, or landscaping that would block the door’s range of motion. Consider the direction the door will swing when in the open and closed positions and plan the clearance accordingly.
What is the maximum width for a hinged garage door?
Hinged garage doors are typically made up to 2500mm or 8 feet wide. Wider doors are possible but would be very heavy and unwieldy. The wider the door, the more clearance needed for it to swing open. Also consider that wider doors require stronger, reinforced frames and hardware to handle the weight. Most residential hinged garage doors range from 9 to 18 feet wide. Check with door manufacturers for specific maximum width recommendations based on the door material and construction.
Can hinged garage doors be automated?
Yes, it is possible to automate hinged garage doors. You can add automatic openers that are mounted to the wall or ceiling and connect to the door. This allows remote control or hands-free operation via transmitters, keypads, or smartphone apps. Make sure the automatic opener is powerful enough to handle the width and weight of the door. Also factor in the required clearance when programming the open/close cycles. Automated hinged doors still need more side clearance than automated roller or sectional doors.
What are the security considerations for hinged garage doors?
Hinged garage doors are inherently less secure than sectional and roller doors. Because they have seams and gaps when closed, they provide more opportunities for prying or breaking in. It is recommended to add additional locks on the door, like deadbolts, for better security. Monitored alarm systems can also help deter break-ins. For improved safety, add sensors that detect if the door is closed or open when unattended. And make sure the door itself is solidly constructed and well-maintained. Overall, hinged doors are more vulnerable than other garage door options
