Morning,
I have a garage attached to the residential building with a 3.3 m continuous interior wall height and a hipped roof on top. I wanted this height because either a mobile single-column lift or a parking lift will be used in the garage. The roof was built as a cantilever with a substantial beam that protrudes from the residential building.
A normal sectional door would limit the height of the garage behind the garage door to 2.5 m (clear opening height), so that doesn’t help me.
A sectional door with a ceiling track is also not possible because of the hipped roof.
Therefore, basically only a roller door or a side sectional door remain.
Both are quite exotic in private residential construction, so I can’t find any experiences with them.
Has anyone installed one of these candidates? Are there any notable manufacturers besides Normstahl and Hörmann? Or any ideas or suggestions?
For me, it currently looks like this:
Roller door:
+ simple technology/low maintenance
+ inexpensive
+ very compact
- slow
- painted slats will sooner or later be scratched
- overall appearance
Side sectional door:
+ very fast
+ door function
+ elegant design
- very expensive
- the wall it runs on must remain free
