ABOUT ROLLER GARAGE DOORS

Roller garage doors roll up vertically in the manner of a roller blind. They are formed of narrow horizontal slats. It is important to have enough space above the door to accommodate the rolled-up door. Provided this space is available, this type of garage door takes up no other space at the sides of the garage or in the ceiling of the garage. It gives good clearance for high vehicles such as people carriers.
