Why Use a Sectional Overhead Door?

Modern facilities increasingly require doors that deliver insulation, efficiency, and safety. The Gliderol Sectional Overhead Door is exactly designed to meet these needs with an upward-acting design and insulated door panels.

Provides effective heat and sound insulation

Our sectional overhead door is designed for openings where heat or sound insulation is required, as well as for closing the larger openings required for industrial buildings.

A smarter alternative to sliding door systems

Designers are increasingly opting for upward-acting doors for their buildings instead of sliding systems, for greater efficiency in door operation as well as to avoid having to provide for the sliding space required at the sides of the openings.

Enhanced safety features for hazard prevention

With increasing emphasis on safety, an upward-acting sectional overhead door needs to be equipped with features and devices that will reduce the possibility of the door falling and causing injury or damage to property.

Capabilities and Design Options of the Gliderol Sectional Overhead Door

With advanced counterbalancing and integrated anti-break mechanisms, our sectional overhead door is built to prevent mechanical failures and ensure safe, consistent operation.

The door system offers flexible routing options, allowing the door travel path to be configured to suit different building layouts using S-Lift, H-Lift, or V-Lift track systems.

  • The S-Lift drives the door up-and-over, resting parallel to the ceiling.
  • The H-lift offers the option of driving the door higher up before turning. This is useful in buildings with higher headroom and where you need to avoid wall-mounted fittings like electrical trunkings and crane beams.
  • If there is more headroom available, the V-lift drives the door straight up, resting neatly against the wall.

The Gliderol Sectional Overhead Door comes in a range of standard colours and can also be custom-painted to match your corporate palette.

A personnel access swing door can be integrated into the door leaf, and additional options such as viewing windows and glass lites are available.
