WOODEN GARAGE DOOR
THAT'S THE POINT OF GARAGE DOORS!
Are you looking for a garage door that fits in with the architecture of your home? Then a wooden garage door could be right for you! Like all Novoferm garage doors, wooden garage doors also offer effective burglary protection, good thermal insulation, silent operation and, on request, an operator.
Here you can find out all about the materials used, the possibility of cladding an old garage door in wood and the correct maintenance of a roller garage door with wood effect. Let yourself be convinced by the advantages of wood-framed garage doors and enrich your home with the right garage door!
WHAT IS A WOODEN GARAGE DOOR?
A wooden garage door is made of solid wood or is a wooden garage door that resembles real wood. Garage doors with wood panelling are the perfect complement to timber houses, old buildings or half-timbered houses where a lot of wood has been used.
However, modern architecture also uses wood as a natural material in many buildings to enable sustainable construction. Roller shutters with a wood look or a garage door with wood cladding are the perfect complement to your property. When renovating, you can clad the old garage door with wood without spoiling the overall impression.
DO I HAVE TO MAINTAIN WOODEN GARAGE DOORS?
If you opt for a solid wood door, it is important to treat the wood with a varnish before installation. This will ensure that your wood-framed garage door is optimally protected against dirt, moisture and UV radiation. Solid wood garage doors are already treated at the factory with a colourless primer against blue rot and pests. You can choose the additional wood stain as a pigmented finish in various colours. In this way, the sectional door or wooden roller shutter door blends in with the rest of the house and forms a harmonious unit.
Novoferm garage doors with painted surfaces are also available as wooden garage doors in Golden Oak, Dark Oak, Winchester and Night Oak. These doors come with a high-quality, easy-to-clean finish that only requires a soft cloth in the event of heavy soiling.
