What are the benefits of a sectional garage door comparatively to a one-piece door?
There are numerous benefits to choosing a sectional garage door over a one-piece door : • If damage occurs, a sectional garage door only requires replacement of the damaged section while the one-piece door will call for a full replacement, this being obviously more costly. • The demand for the one-piece door constantly decreasing, it will become more and more difficult to find spare parts for these as time goes by. • The sectional garage door is safer at opening than the one-piece door. • The sectional garage door fits flush to the door frame instead of overlapping the frame on the outside. It is therefore safer and easier to open, especially if there is a thick cover of snow on the ground. • It is easier to install a garage door opener for a sectional door. • The sectional garage door has an all-around weather strip and has a better insulation at the perimeter.
