| Owning a Gliderol roller garage door gives you the reassurance of knowing that Gliderol is one of the world's most experienced roller garage door manufacturers with over thirty years experience in the garage door industry.There are many advantages of a roller door over the traditional up-and-over:
Space saving both inside and outside the garage.
Unlike an up-and-over garage door a GlideRol-a-Door rolls up vertically and subsequently does not swing out in front of the garage. This means you can park right up to the door and benefit from more hanging space in the roof of the garage as well.
A roller door is easy to operate.
The unique spring assisted spindle assembly assures precise balance and will provide you with a roller door that is always easy to open and close giving reliable performance at all times. The use of the material Polyglide on the edges of the door allows effortless operation with minimum noise and friction.
A roller door is more secure than an up and over door.
The strength gained from the unique profile and aluminium bottom rail is unrivalled and has been specifically designed to reinforce our roller doors against intruder penetration.
Minimal maintenance.
There is no requirement for any oiling or greasing of any part of a Gliderol roller door, a periodic clean of the guides with a soft cloth and white spirit is all that is required whilst the finish of the door may be washed with warm soapy water

Guaranteed to last
As Gliderol doors are built to take the wear and tear of life and the weather, Gliderol are able to provide some impressive guarantees. So long as the door is reasonably maintained Gliderol doors are guaranteed against all normal conditions - in the case of electrical components for 2 years, mechanical parts for 6 years and the door finish for 10 years. |
| WIDTH SPECIFICATIONS |
 |
Gliderol roller doors are available in a variety of widths up to 5m wide and 3m high. Because the curtain sits behind the brickwork, they are ideal for arched and unusual garage openings. <
Requiring no frame, installation is easy and provides the maximum possible garage door opening width, even for the wider vehicle.
Whilst manual doors can be easily converted to automatic later, there is a significant cost saving if the unit is factory-fitted at the outset
Glidermatic doors require an extra 20mm side clearance on the side the drive unit is required to be fitted.
