Side Hung Garage Doors

Side-hinged (or as they can be known, Side-Hung) garage doors open in the conventional way with butt hinges attached to the door frame on either side – decorative strap hinges can also be used either for function or simply for aesthetic purposes.

Often considered to match the traditional glazed look associated with 1930s properties they are experiencing a comeback in recent years with new modern and insulated doors available constructed using sectional door panels.

Requiring the least internal space of any garage door they suit those who need every inch of space. Available in steel, timber or GRP they come in a diverse range of styles and finishes to suit all tastes with or without windows. Offered in a 50:50 or 1/3:2/3 configuration, side hinged garage doors suit a range of uses.
Very secure as standard, they can be further upgraded to suit individual requirements. Please be advised that if your drive slopes up away from the door opening, then it is likely that this door type is not suitable!

Security

With multi-point locking available, side-hinged doors, particularly insulated doors, can be amongst the most secure options

Weatherproofing & Insulation

With excellent weatherproofing as standard, this can be further enhanced with insulated doors available in a huge range of styles

Space Saving

With no projection into the garage, they can allow the maximum use of internal space

Narrow Frame

Side-hinged doors typically have a narrow frame allowing them to fit in tighter gaps than some other doors

Door Stays

Optional door stays will hold the door in position when the door is open to prevent unwanted closure such as in high winds

Variety

Side hinged doors are available in a huge range of styles from the traditional to the very modern, in different materials, with or without windows and in different finishes

Additional Information:

Benefits

For the most reliable doors, single-skin steel or insulated steel doors offer the least maintenance of any door type by virtue of their very simple hinged mechanism. For a modern look, or even for the 1930s look without the maintenance of timber, coupled with excellent security and weatherproofing, these are the doors to go for.

Colours and Designs

You can specify steel side hinged garage doors in a variety of colours, finishes, vertical, solid or ribbed designs and with added windows and matching side doors.

Treatments

For those in search of the perfect aesthetic twinned with strong functionality, wooden side-hinged doors are a great choice. Available either stained in a tone of your choice or fully finished in a colour of your choice, as they are made by hand by craftsman there is not limit to the styles available. Alternatively, Garador’s steel chassis coupled with wooden infill gives the best of both worlds – the beauty of timber and the strength and low maintenance of a steel frame and chassis.

Team Advice

We can advise on many options to enahnce security, design and type of frame or threshold.

Excellent from start to finish We recently had two Ryterna Midrib sectional doors fitted to our garage. The team at Up & Over Doors made the whole process simple and straight forward. The doors are incredibly well made and the guys finished off the fitting really well leaving no mess. I would 100% recommend Up & Over Doors to anyone.

I have used up & over doors before but have just bought a house and the garage door needed a up graded motor and lock kit. Tim came out and very quickly sent me a quote for the the work needed. I was kept updated at all times about the ordering of parts and a date to complete the work. The two engineers turned up on time and let me know when on their way. The work was carried out to good standard and tested and checked to make sure the where no problems. I would recomend up & over doors no mattter what door you require good customer skills and good pricing. And their showroom has a very good range of doors so you can see what you want plus they explain all questions you might ask. Nice to see a company that value their customers.

I had a pair of side-hung garage doors fitted recently. Everything was good, from the initial survey through to the installation. The doors are good quality, and at a fair price for the quality. And the two guys who fitted the doors did an excellent job, and were nice people to have around.

I recently had the pleasure of using Up and Over Doors in Bristol for a new garage door replacement, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The team was incredibly efficient, completing the job much faster than I expected without compromising on quality. They were also very tidy, leaving the area spotless after installation. Their professionalism and attention to detail truly set them apart. I highly recommend Up and Over Doors for anyone looking for a reliable, fast, and tidy service.

Really happy with the service and the doors provided (garage door and front door). Everyone in this company have been professional and attentive from start to finish, taking the time to explain details, providing quotes for various options, and just generally going beyond expectations to provide an exceptional service.
