Chester GRP Side-Hinged Garage Doors
Colour
- View all colours
Description
The Chester door is a classic 12-panel Georgian design, combining strength and style in a single package.
Traditional, side hinged doors are back in fashion, but we've given them a performance upgrade and are perfect when frequent access is required but not wanting to open the garage door completely.
Without compromising on looks, we've combined modern materials and cutting-edge technology to provide added security and increased durability. Manufactured from GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester), an incredibly strong, dent resistant composite laminate material and is built onto a strong, corrosion protected steel chassis which provides a protective 'picture frame' edge all around the door panel and shoot bolt locking provides that added protection. Weather seals are fitted between the frame and the door leaves providing additional barriers against the elements.
Every door is individually made, and all designs are available with equal half split leaves, opening outwards to maximise available clear space inside the garage.
All you have to do is choose from the excellent range of styles and colours available.

Maintenance
Anglian garage doors are a low maintenance product, however certain simple checks carried out will ensure extended trouble free operation.
- Wash the door with warm soapy water using a soft cloth every 3 months
- Check and clean out the guide rails and any moving parts annually, removing any accumulated leaves and debris
- Ensure the door closes onto a clean level surface
- Oil regularly (at least four times a year, depending on location and site) using a light oil or maintenance spray. All moving parts should be oiled especially all pivot points, running tracks (DO NOT grease them), tension springs and hinges.
- Please do NOT oil cylinders, if they are sticking, only lubricate with graphite dust, a specialist dry lubricant.
