A GRP garage door can give you the look of wood, but with the long-lasting resilience you get with a fibreglass material.

The sections and tracks of a garage door operate as a system and if one is lacking, the system fails and injury can result. According to DASMA, to ensure the long life and maximum performance of your door, you should always use the track that is specifically designed for your new garage door.
On average, it takes our experienced team between 4 and 6 hours to remove your old garage door and its frame, install your new frame, connect and tension the door, and tidy up.
Old tracks may pose a safety threat to you and your family. Over time, your tracks may rust, warp, or bend, compromising the safety of your garage door system. If it’s time to replace the garage door itself, it’s probably time to replace the tracks as well.
