An industrial sectional garage door operates by dividing the door into several horizontal panels or sections, which are hinged together. When the door is activated, either manually or by a motor, the sections glide along a set of tracks that run vertically up the wall and then curve to run parallel to the ceiling.

This design allows the door to open upwards and lay flat beneath the roof, maximising space both inside and outside the garage. The door’s movement is supported by rollers, torsion springs, and cables that help counterbalance its weight, ensuring smooth and safe operation. Industrial sectional doors are typically constructed from robust materials like steel or aluminium, providing high levels of security, insulation, and durability. They are often used in warehouses, factories, and large commercial garages where efficient access, frequent operation, and reliability are essential. Additional features such as windows for visibility, insulation panels for energy efficiency, and various control systems can be integrated to suit specific industrial needs.
