Hörmann Glazed Section Doors light up high-end garage project

With a number of luxury cars and motorbikes to house, an impressive new-build garage project in the West Midlands is all the more striking with the inclusion of fully glazed ART42 sectional garage doors from Hörmann UK. Chosen for their modern design aesthetic and German build quality the doors were specified and installed by Birmingham based Doorfit.

The double-storey garage, which includes a home office and gym on the first floor, is fitted with three, 2.5m wide x 2m high, fully automated ART42 sectional doors. Constructed from a lightweight, yet strong, alumiumum framework the three doors include narrow framed, large clear glazing panels featuring the unique Hörmann DURATEC scratch-resistance finish. An innovative surface coating, DURATEC protects the glazing panes from scratches and damage caused by cleaning over the long-term, helping to guarantee a permanently flawless appearance.

Finished in a smooth, modern Anthracite grey the three doors complement the other materials used and complete an impressive building ideal for displaying the clients’ extensive vehicle collection and offering a bright unimpeded view.

Commenting on the installation, David Close from Doorfit says, “Having listened to our clients’ aspirations and specific requirements we immediately knew that the Hörmann ART42 glazed sectional doors would be the perfect choice and would provide the ideal visual solution. The combination of functionality and aesthetics were exactly what was required, with the comforting reassurance of quality that comes with a premium brand such as Hörmann.

This was certainly a unique project to work on and the end results are amazing, testament to the partnership between Hörmann and Doorfit, a quality product backed up with a quality service” 

Hörmann ART42 sectional doors are available with a selection of infill panels, including a range of coloured glazed options, textured and steel perforated panels, offering the opportunity to create unique and stylish garage doors.
