Up-and-over Doors in Glastonbury and Wells
Up-and-over doors (sometimes known as panel doors) are the closest thing to a “traditional” garage door in Britain
We’ve all seen them – most of us have had them at one time or another. These are single-panel doors, normally made of metal, that are lifted up with the assistance of a counterweight cable to slide effortlessly into the ceiling cavity of the garage. It’s a classic design and one that is still popular among our Glastonbury and Wells clients.

While up-and-over doors are easy to operate, the mechanism itself is a little more complicated. When you lift the door panel, small wheels are guided along a rail screwed into the garage wall. This, combined with the pull of the door’s counterweight cable, causes the familiar “up-and-over” motion that gives the door its more familiar name. You can make the process even easier by fitting an electronic opener to the door. This is what you can expect from us:
