The one piece Up and Over garage door has been the most popular type of garage door in the UK for many years.
The simplicity of operation and diversity of panel design is one key factor. Up and Over garage doors can be a standard size or made to measure if extra width or height is required to optimise the drive through sizes.
Choosing an operating mechanism that is suitable for your garage is as important as choosing the right door panel. Here we explain the difference between the two types of mechanisms: canopy and retractable.
An optional 4 point locking kit is available. It comprises of steel locking bar rods and slam-shut latches to increase the number of locking points. Westcoast Doors offers a steel fixing frame for all single canopy doors. This frame makes an on-site timber frame redundant and saves valuable installation time as it is quick and easy to install.

It comprises of steel locking bar rods and slam-shut latches to increase the number of locking points. Westcoast Doors offers a steel fixing frame for all single and double retractable doors.

Up and over garage doors consist of a one-piece panel and are available in three gear versions; the different gear mechanisms change how the one-piece panel opens/closes and how it retracts inside your garage. The most common up and over garage door gear is the canopy version.
Canopy gear: uses a half-track system and partially retracts inside the garage close to the ceiling. Part of the door will protrude outside of the garage to form a canopy. It’s worth noting that canopy doors are not designed to have an electric motor installed.
Retractable gear: utilises a fully tracked system, enabling the door to fully retract inside the garage. Retractable gear is designed to be installed manually or electrically. You can also add an electric operator to the door at a later point.
