When it comes to choosing the right garage door for your home, there are many options to consider.
One type of door that has been gaining popularity is the side-hinged garage door.
Side-hinged garage doors offer numerous benefits that make them an attractive choice for homeowners looking for a convenient and stylish solution for their garage.
Let’s take a closer look.
Side hinged garage doors are hinged on the side and open outwards, like traditional doors.
They typically consist of two panels that swing open from the centre, providing easy access to your garage,
Side-hinged garage doors offer different splits to suit your specific needs and preferences. For example, you could opt for a classic 50/50 split or a 75/25 division, which adds a standard-sized door to your garage.
One key advantage of side-hinged garage doors is that they suit garages that lack the headroom required for vertical rising doors, such as sectional or roller garage doors.
With side-hinged doors, you can enjoy easy access to your garage without the need for additional overhead space.
Side-hinged doors open outwards, allowing you to maximise the available space within your garage.
This is particularly beneficial if you want to use your garage for storage or as a workshop, as you can utilise the ceiling space without any obstructions.
Side-hinged garage doors are built to last, with features that contribute to their durability and longevity.
Many side-hinged doors, like those offered by Skandoor, carry a CE/UKCA mark, showing compliance with strict European and UK safety standards.
Security is a top priority for homeowners, and side-hinged garage doors deliver on this front.
High-quality models, like those offered by Skandoor, have security keys for secure locking, ensuring that your garage and its contents remain protected.
The robust construction of the doors, along with the sturdy aluminium hinges and locking mechanisms, provides an additional layer of security against break-ins.
High-quality side-hinged doors offer effective insulation to keep your home and/or the contents of your garage at a stable temperature.
Additionally, a well-insulated garage door can help prevent drafts from entering your home, improving energy efficiency.
Skandoor’s side-hinged doors are equipped with 40mm thick interlocking panels, which offer excellent insulation properties to regulate the temperature within your garage and reduce heating costs.
Side-hinged garage doors look superb, offering a more traditional aesthetic compared to conventional garage door styles.
Investing in a high-quality, visually appealing garage door will also boost your home’s curb appeal and potentially increase its value.
With Skandoor’s range of designs and colours, you can choose a door that complements your home’s architectural style and adds a touch of character and charm.
With their space-saving design, customisation options, and robust construction, side-hinged doors provide numerous benefits that make them attractive for those looking to upgrade their garage.
