It has been some time since Teckentrup moved from a laminate film wood effect to a painted wood effect finish and positive sales have been the result. There were a few reasons: • Paint finish is more UV stable over time than laminate film, retaining colour for longer and less prone to the finish becoming ‘milky’ in strong sunlight. • They outperform films for scratch and abrasion resistance. • Making frame legs and sections from laminate film introduces stress marks at each bend so it’s not an option. • With a painted finish, there are no such limitations. Frame legs and headers don’t complement, they match. • Fitting part-within or within the opening now means an edge to edge matching finish - customers love it! All the points above make a great case… …but what about the obvious one? They look amazing, perhaps…. the best in the industry!? No weak grain effects that merge into a solid colour from all but a few feet away, just natural looking grain and great colour. Take a look at these images - If you’ve not seen the painted finishes on a complete door, Teckentrup thought sharing a few pictures was the best way of showing just how good the finish is. Teckentrup are indebted to Mark Kenyon at Pennine Doors for such a fine installation. If you’d like a sample of the finish contact Teckentrup UK Limited on 01925 924050, email sales@teckentrup.co.uk or visit www.teckentrupdepot.co.uk for more information 2-week lead time for CarTeck Anthracite Textured Solid design sectional garage doors Teckentrup now carries CarTeck Solid design panel in Anthracite Textured (RAL 7016) as a stock item.

Anthracite – RAL 7016 – is definitely the colour of the moment and the solid panel design is the door design of choice. Already part of the Trend Colour range, Anthracite Textured is now ‘on the shelf’. The texture has a soft satin reflectance that is true for colour but makes the panels more scratch resistant than flat paint.
