OUR DIFFERENCE

FRAMES AND HARDWARE

Features

  • Robust Hinge Support: The rear sections of our frames, where hinge fasteners are located, feature an increased wall thickness of 3mm, ensuring enhanced durability and long-lasting performance.
  • Panel Bracing: Additional bracing in bottom panel for doors over 5000mm prevents sagging or “smiling.”
  • Precision Construction: Our design allows for the door to be constructed as a single piece, with the final step involving cutting the finished door into individual panels. This method ensures optimal accuracy and alignment of any feature cladding, including timber grain (ends matching) and vertical battens.
  • Cyclone Wind Rating: Our frames are engineered to meet cyclone wind ratings when equipped with the appropriate cyclone hardware.

Hardware

We have access to specialised, industry-leading hardware in Australia. If you have unique requirements, please don’t hesitate to contact us; we have innovative solutions to ensure the best outcome for our customers. To ensure optimal door operation for years to come, we recommend avoiding oversized panels whenever possible. Please refer to the hardware selector table below for more information.

The specified headroom refers to the space above the garage door opening, extending into the garage, necessary for hardware installation. When the door is in the open position, the clear opening height will be reduced due to the door’s thickness and any reinforcing rails. For precise measurements in tight spaces, please contact us for detailed guidance.

CYCLONE ENGINEERED & WIND RATED DOORS

Experience in the building industry highlighted the need for our garage doors to be designed to meet the highest standards of strength and durability. We offer both generic and site-specific engineering solutions tailored to your project’s requirements and location.

Wind Load Ratings

  • Generic Engineering: Our standard cyclone designs achieve C2 and C3 wind ratings for doors up to 6.2 meters wide and 3.3 meters high and up to 400kg.
  • Site-Specific Engineering: For projects requiring higher wind classifications, we provide customised engineering solutions to meet specific site conditions.

We are committed to discussing your individual needs to ensure optimal performance and compliance with local building codes. In addition, our cyclone rated doors are complimented by heavy duty hardware, continuous mounting angles and hurricane rated wheels.
