Working with its Norwegian partners, engineering specialists Lobas, Garage Door Systems has added the elegance of Scandinavian design that is characterised by simplicity and functionality. A host of enhancements have been made, all with the objective of simplifying and improving the life of an installer! 1. One-piece roller hinges means fewer parts in the box, fewer things to find, a quicker and easier adjustment. 2. The new bottom bracket requires no adjustment - one less thing to do for a quicker fit! 3. The new top bracket has been redesigned to improve its appearance and now fits entirely on the aluminium top cap. 4. The new track has added strength and versatility - back drops can be fitted anywhere up to 500mm from the end of the horizontal tracks thanks to a clever new w-lug feature. Hitting that joist has never been easier. 5. Need a side fix for the track? No problem - a new spacer bar allows you to use the track hangers to side fix. 6. A smart “between-and under fit” top-fixing bracket is pre-fitted and allows plenty of adjustment, ensuring a solid fix every time. 7. Reduced door panel endcap returns ensure maximum seal coverage. 8. Fitting a LiftMaster EVO operator? Every door now includes a clever support bracket - no need to hang the boom from the ceiling! Makes installation quick and so easy. 9. Rear torsion doors up to 10’0” wide (3048mm) are supplied with a one- piece shaft for a quicker fit. “It’s a crowded market and we know that to compete it’s not just about price. We make a big play on our ability to support our customers with a 2-week lead-time across our Sectional door range. Add the fact that our already great gear has just taken another jump forward to ensure the fitting experience is really positive, we know we have a truly great sectional door offering”, commented Mark McEvoy, Garage Doors Systems’ Commercial Director.
