Automatic Sectional Doors for Garages & Warehouses

GGS — Golden Gates Solutions offers automatic sectional doors for garages, warehouses, and commercial and industrial facilities, made of interlocking panels that move vertically then extend along the ceiling when opening.

The motion method helps make use of the space in front of the entrance, while the insulated panels and rubber seals provide a practical solution for sites that need easy operation and reduced dust and insect entry.

What Are Sectional Doors?

Sectional doors, or "sectional" doors, consist of a set of interlocking horizontal panels that move within side tracks when opening and closing.

The door rises vertically then moves inward along the ceiling, so it suits sites whose entrances don't have enough space for traditional door motion.

The door can be operated electrically and controlled remotely, with the motor type and power determined by the door's dimensions, weight, usage rate, and the site's nature.

Where Are Sectional Doors Used?

Sectional doors can be used at a number of sites, including:

1 Villa and home garages.
2 Warehouses.
3 Factories.
4 Workshops and maintenance centers.
5 Service centers.
6 Commercial entrances.
7 Storage areas.
8 Facilities with wide entrances.

The door's specifications and operating system are determined based on the site type, entrance size, and how often it opens and closes.

Sectional Door Specifications

Final specifications vary by project dimensions and usage nature, and include the options GGS offers:

Panels made of galvanized steel. An internal insulating layer made of polystyrene. Remote electric operation via motors suited to the usage nature. Multiple panel designs, including square and ribbed shapes. A bottom rubber seal that helps limit dust and insect entry. Aluminum side tracks that help the door move smoothly. 220-volt motors for residential use. 380-volt motors for industrial use.

Final specifications are approved after reviewing the entrance dimensions, door weight, operating rate, and the space available above and inside the site.

Sectional Door Advantages

1 Space Efficiency

The door moves vertically then along the ceiling, so it doesn't need much space in front of the entrance when opening.

2 Ease of Operation

The door can be operated electrically and controlled remotely, with the motor chosen based on the door's size and use.

3 Insulation Support

The panels contain an insulating layer that helps reduce the impact of external conditions, per the door's approved specifications.

4 Reduced Dust Entry

The bottom rubber seal helps close the gap under the door and reduces dust and insect entry.

5 Multiple Uses

Sectional doors suit residential garages, warehouses, factories, and commercial entrances.

6 Different Design Options

The panels are available in multiple shapes and finishes that can be chosen to suit the site's nature.

The Difference Between Sectional Doors & Roller Shutter Doors

Both types move vertically, but there are differences in how the door is assembled and the space it occupies after opening.

Sectional Doors

Made of interlocking horizontal panels that move upward then extend along the ceiling, suited to garages, warehouses, and sites that need insulated panels and a consistent design.

Roller Shutter Doors

Made of smaller slats that coil inside a box above the entrance, suited to shops, showrooms, warehouses, and sites that need to save interior space above the door.

The choice between the two depends on the available space, facility type, entrance dimensions, insulation requirements, and usage nature.

How to Choose the Right Sectional Door?

1 Review the Interior Space

You must confirm there's suitable space above the entrance and inside the site to accommodate the door's motion tracks.

2 Define the Entrance Dimensions

Width and height measurements help determine the door's size, weight, and the required panel type.

3 Define the Usage Rate

The suitable motor for a home garage differs from the one needed for a warehouse or an industrial facility with frequent operation.

4 Choose the Operating Voltage

220-volt motors can be used for residential systems, or 380-volt for industrial systems, based on the site's needs.

5 Review Insulation Requirements

The facility's nature and surrounding conditions affect the choice of panel thickness and insulating material type.

What Determines Sectional Door Prices?

Sectional door cost varies from project to project based on several factors, most notably:

The door's width and height. The panel type and thickness. The insulating material type. The door's design and finish. The door's weight. The motor type and power. The required operating voltage. The expected number of operating cycles. The installation site's condition. The required accessories and control systems.

For a suitable quote, send the entrance dimensions, photos of the site, the usage type, and your city.

Steps to Order & Install a Sectional Door

1 Sending Site Details

Send your city, the facility type, the entrance dimensions, and available photos.

2 Reviewing Space & Requirements

The entrance and ceiling space and usage nature are reviewed, with a technical site visit if needed.

3 Defining the Specifications

The panel type, motor, tracks, and operating method are defined, then the scope of work and price are clarified.

4 Preparation & Installation

The door is prepared per the approved dimensions, then the tracks and motor are installed and the open/close motion tested.

FAQ

FAQ About Sectional Doors
