Everyone wants a beautiful garage door and today , thanks to new materials , designs , and technology , a modern garage door can indeed be a really stunning feature in any home .

“ Applied modern technology underpins any modern garage door - and it ’ s not just about opening devices ,” he says . “ Of course , being a leader in garage door manufacture , we offer the latest in automatic openers , with full control from smart hubs and phones , fingerprint technology , and so on . But modern technology goes a lot further than that . for instance , which we introduced for our popular GaraGlide roller garage doors . Built around a special belt made from microcellular polyurethane elastomer , Durabelt has been designed specifically to reduce marks and scratches on the surface of the curtain , helping to ensure a smooth operation and even more long-lasting protection for the door curtain . This may seem like a small detail , but it makes a significant difference .”
