Side-Hinged Garage Doors

At Taundry Doors, we specialise in supplying and installing side-hinged garage doors for homeowners seeking a reliable, low-maintenance, and versatile garage door solution. Perfect for properties with interior obstructions or frequent pedestrian access needs, our side-hinged doors offer both practicality and timeless style.

What Are Side-Hinged Garage Doors?

Side-hinged garage doors open outward like traditional double doors, providing easy manual operation and unobstructed interior space. Ideal for garages used for more than just vehicle storage, they’re the perfect choice for workshops, home gyms, utility areas, and conversions.

Benefits of Side-Hinged Garage Doors

Perfect for Garages with Interior Obstructions

Unlike roller or sectional doors, side-hinged garage doors require no internal headroom or ceiling clearance. This makes them ideal for garages with:

  • Ceiling-mounted storage

  • Shelving or workbenches

  • Limited overhead space

Flexible Access Options: 1/2 & 1/2 or 2/3 & 1/3 Splits

Choose a door configuration that suits your lifestyle:

  • 1/2 – 1/2 split: Traditional equal-opening doors

  • 2/3 – 1/3 split: Ideal for daily use, allowing pedestrian access without opening both doors

This design is especially useful for households that use the garage for more than just parking, making access easy and secure.
