1st Choice Gates

Sectional garage doors operate exceptionally well, and can often provide wider and higher drive through openings. There are a number of sleek and contemporary designs available.

Consisting of four or five sections hinged together to form a single door, sectionals open vertically up and then fold over and open horizontally back into the garage on tracks. The clean vertical opening movement means that the bottom doesn’t kick out and the top doesn’t lean in, always a potential problem with high backed cars like MPVs or 4x4s, short driveways or those times when you’ve parked just a bit too close! The sectional door can only move up and down in its own tracks. There is no outward movement for the door, this makes them very secure.
