Automatic Side-Hinged Garage Doors
Automatic side-hinged garage doors open using one or two door leaves that swing outward or inward rather than travelling overhead. This traditional opening arrangement keeps the garage ceiling completely free and is suitable for villas, private garages and properties where overhead tracks or rolling mechanisms are not preferred.
The doors can be configured as single or double leaves depending on the opening dimensions and architectural requirements. Steel, aluminium and insulated panel constructions can be considered with different colours, finishes and designs to complement both traditional and contemporary UAE properties.
Automation is selected according to the size, weight, hinge arrangement, opening angle and expected operating frequency of each door leaf. Compatible electromechanical operators provide controlled opening and closing and can be combined with remote controls, wall controls, access control and smart automation systems.
Safety devices can include photocells, obstacle detection, force control and controlled closing according to the selected automation system. Manual release is provided where supported by the operator, allowing the door to be released during a power failure. The hinges, door movement, operators, opening limits and safety functions are adjusted and tested before handover.
