Applications and Typical Use Cases
Sectional overhead doors are widely specified in commercial and industrial environments where insulation, durability and efficient access are essential. Their vertical opening action makes them particularly suitable for buildings where maximising internal and external space is critical.
They are commonly used on warehouses, distribution centres, loading bays, workshops, factories and industrial units. Sectional overhead doors are ideal for high-use openings where reliable daily operation, thermal performance and a professional appearance are required, making them a popular choice for logistics, manufacturing and commercial facilities.
New Build or Replacement Installations
Our sectional overhead doors are suitable for both new build developments and replacement projects. In new builds, doors can be fully integrated into the design, with panel thickness, insulation levels, glazing and finishes selected to meet operational and aesthetic requirements from the outset.
For replacement installations, sectional overhead doors provide an effective upgrade from older door systems, offering improved insulation, smoother operation and enhanced safety features. Existing openings can often be adapted with minimal structural alteration, making them a practical solution for refurbishments where performance improvements are required without major disruption.

Safety, Compliance and Operation
Safety and compliance are central to the design of sectional overhead doors. All systems are manufactured to meet the requirements of BS EN 13241-1, with certified safety features designed to protect users during operation. Panels incorporate finger-protection as standard where required, and safety devices such as spring break protection and cable break devices are fitted to minimise risk.
Doors can be operated manually, by chain hoist or via electric motors depending on size and usage. Electrically operated doors can be specified with additional safety features such as safety edges or light curtains, ensuring controlled and compliant operation in busy industrial environments. When correctly specified and installed, sectional overhead doors provide safe, reliable access under demanding conditions.
Finishes and Operation Options
Our sectional overhead doors are available with a wide range of finish options to suit both functional and aesthetic requirements. Door panels can be supplied in a choice of colours and surface finishes, including polyester and plastisol coatings, allowing the door to integrate seamlessly with the building façade or corporate branding. Glazing options are also available, with insulated window panels or full-width panoramic sections to increase natural light and improve visibility inside the building.
In terms of operation, sectional overhead doors can be specified to suit the size of the opening and the frequency of use. Manual operation is suitable for smaller doors, while chain hoist systems provide controlled operation for larger or heavier doors. For high-use or operationally critical openings, fully automatic operation is available using electric motors, offering smooth, reliable performance and compatibility with safety devices such as safety edges, light curtains and access control systems.
