The Many Types of Commercial Garage Doors [infographic]

There are more types of garage doors than you might think. When purchasing one for your business, it is important to understand the options available. Here at Artex Overhead Door Company, we offer glass overhead doors, hangar doors, high-speed doors, fire-rated doors, rolling doors, and sectional doors. We encourage you to familiarize yourself with the basic differences, and we are more than happy to work with you to determine which of our commercial garage doors best suits your needs.

The Basic Types of Commercial Garage Doors

• Commercial garage doors can be split into rolling doors and sectional doors. Rolling refers to types of garage doors that roll up into the ceiling when the doors are opened. Sectional doors do not roll, instead sliding upwards and lying along the garage’s ceiling. Homes typically have sectional doors.
• Rolling doors and sectional doors have different requirements. They are installed differently and may require extra work depending on the garage.

Specific Options Available in Commercial Garage Doors

• Many of our clients like glass overhead doors for their modern look. These sectional garage doors feature glass in the center, allowing light to enter into your space and brighten it up.
• Hangar doors are perfect for large facilities with large vehicles. Our hangar doors are made with energy efficiency, durability, and strength in mind.
• High-speed garage doors minimize the amount of time they remain open. This makes them perfect for maintaining a consistent temperature in your facility or improving your building’s energy efficiency.
• Fire-rated doors are designed specifically for resisting fire and extreme heat. Having these doors can help prevent fires from spreading, keeping both your employees and your facility safe.
