Security Garage Doors and Entrance Doors

The Garage Door Centre offers many types of specialist garage doors and front entrance doors, and we have several with tested security ratings for the now often required 'Secured by Design' rating.

Security is frequently one of the top three features required by most customers when buying or replacing a new garage or front entrance door. Where the garage is integral, or as in most cases, a large amount of valuables are kept inside a garage, security is obviously a key issue. Of course, it is also vital that your front door not only looks good, but offers excellent levels of security too.

Garage Doors with Security

Panel strength in a door is one part of the equation, but the locking system is ultimately more important. There are now several garage doors with the prestigious 'Secure by Design' rating, which means the door has been tested and approved to a standard by a third party. Testing consists of a rigorous break-in attempt with some tools over a set period of time. Moreover, many quality garage doors on the UK market are manufactured in Germany, and they have a TUV testing certificate, producing doors with equally high ratings for security. Some of the leading doors at present for security are:

Electric Roller Garage Door:

Insulated Sectional Garage Doors:

Insulated Double Skinned Hinged Garage Doors:

Many garage doors are sold with various 'security' add on features, but we ensure that we offer garage doors where the entire door has been tested by the independent body to enable a certificate to be issued. This means there is a level of security recognised and approved for use, with many various building projects requiring such levels of security. For the majority, it is just about having the peace of mind of having a garage door which has been tested and approved, and will be more secure than most others.

Front Entrance Doors with Security

The Garage Door Centre offer various very high quality front entrance doors from market leaders Hormann and Garador, as well as a range of entrance doors purely designed for security and strength. The Hormann ThermoPro, ThermoSafe and ThermoCarbon not only offer some of the very highest levels of insulation in any front entrance door, but the security levels are also exceptional with multi-point locking as standard.

Higher levels of security are possible, as well as increased levels of security through the use of bio-metric access controls, as well as other forms of controls to ensure the home owner is the only person locking and unlocking the door. A new range of extra high security rated entrance doors are being installed into our showroom as we write this blog. These doors will offer ratings right up to a ballistic rated door (bulletproof), and the entirety of the bespoke, meaning you can literally have any design you want with a fully finished panel and sub frame.
