Step 2
Measure the height of the door opening at the highest point. This is the distance between the finished floor and the top of the finished opening.

Measure the Nibs which is the width of the areas on either side of the opening. 150mm is required on each side for installation of the vertical track.
Step 4
Measure the area between the top of the door opening (lintel) to the lowest beam (ceiling). A minimum headroom of 350mm is required for the installation of a sectional overhead garage door.

GARAGE DOOR STYLES Choose the Garage Door Style best suited to your garage
Think about Space, Use and Environment.
Why choose a Roll Up Garage Door?
- Space saving, making them perfect for places where limited head and side room are an issue.
- Door rolls up into metal drum placed above the doorway on the interior wall.
- Provides security and protection from weather elements.
- Manual and automatic options available.
Why choose a Sectional Overhead Garage Door?
- The door is mounted in a recessed metal track that runs up alongside the garage door opening and continues across the garage ceiling.
- Opens up the whole garage door opening (for larger vehicles)
- Seals your garage opening much tighter (keeping unwanted dust and rain out)
- Suitable for short driveways as you can park your car directly against your garage door, whereas with the Tip Up garage door you have to allow for +1/2 meter opening space for the door
- Automatic operation is highly recommended for this door style
Why choose a Tip Up Garage Door?
- Solid panel that tips into an upward position when opening.
- When the door is open, half the door is inside and half the door is outside (allow for +1/2 meter opening space for the door).
- Usually fitted onto openings where there is minimal headroom in the garage
- Manual and automatic options available.
