Door Industry Journal - Winter 2019

The Woodgrain offers a robust and durable surface finish, which is more forgiving. Whilst the Planar surface finish is incredibly smooth, giving the impression of superb quality and is only available in special matt deluxe colours. The Decocolor surface finish gives the appearance of real timber. The new Planar surface finish is only available in six special matt deluxe colours, developed exclusively for Garador. These colours include Traffic White, White Aluminium, Grey Aluminium, Titan Metallic, Anthracite Grey and Terra Brown, and offer a unique and attractive matt appearance that differentiates them from Garador’s normal gloss colours. One of the reduced cost aspects of the door is where the inside of the door sections are no longer painted in Grey White paint, but rather the door sections now have a silver coloured galvanisation with a clear protective lacquer. It’s worth noting that you can still achieve the same level of precision and appearance in how the door is fitted, with a full selection of 90mm cover profiles and top fascia panels, in colours and surface finishes to match the Autodor you have purchased. Matching Autodor garage side doors, which are also insulated (42mm thick) and filled with PU- foam, are available to complement the Autodor. Garador’s Managing Director Neil Discombe comments “The Autodor is the perfect solution for many modern properties requiring great thermal insulation. The door sections are well-insulated, helping to reduce heat-loss which can potentially lead to lower energy bills for integral garages” The Autodor retains all the usual features and precision engineered design that you have come to expect from a Garador sectional garage door.
