The engineering and product development teams at Garador have been busy over the last 18 months, developing a new competitively priced roller door, called the GaraGlide, which is available to purchase from 18th November 2020. You can view the new GaraGlide consumer brochure and GaraGlide price list on the Garador website.
It comes in 15 colours, 2 timber effect finishes and a full range of custom sizes up to 5000mm wide and 3100mm high. The GaraGlide is electrically automated, so homeowners can open and close their door at the touch of a button. The door itself is powered by a tubular drive motor and is supplied with two remote hand transmitters as standard. Homeowners can choose from either a standard or bisecur hand transmitter design, to control their door, thus giving them a basic and more advanced option to choose from.
There's also a smart new control panel, with an integrated LED light to illuminate the garage on those dark winter evenings. The door is also supplied with an internal crank handle for emergency release, so homeowners can still open and close the door in the event of a power cut. The door features a wired optical sensor built into the floor seal to ensure that the door curtain stops, in the event of an obstruction. The optical sensor utilises light beam technology, whereby when the beam is broken the door will stop.
Safety has been a key consideration in the development of this new product and so each GaraGlide is supplied with a solid metal box cover, which encloses the door curtain, helping to protect the door curtain from dust, dirt and damage whilst in the open position. This also prevents an individual’s fingers from becoming caught or trapped, as the curtain itself is contained.
Purchasing a roller door design that is easy to fit is an important consideration for builders and garage door fitters alike. Watch our YouTube video displayed below, which shows just how quick and easy it is to install.
The door curtain itself is constructed from 77mm high aluminium profiles, filled with CFC free polyurethane foam with additional options for ventilation grilles or glazing elements. With its tubular motor driven design, wired optical-sensor and comparative price, it’s one of the best value roller garage doors currently available on the market.
