Overhead Garage Door

Cornell is the leading manufacturer of overhead coiling doors, fire door solutions, overhead insulated doors, rolling garage doors, security doors and security grilles

In a commercial setting, choosing the right overhead garage door is crucial. All commercial garage doors are not created equal. 

Overhead garage doors are manufactured using roll formed metal slats that interlock to form a curtain that coils above openings and provide security and protection in commercial, industrial, government and other buildings. This prevents unauthorized entries, superior security, weather protection and rugged durability solutions for building opening and entryways. 

Overhead Garage Door

Usually, when purchasing an overhead garage door the first question is whether to choose an overhead coiling door or a sectional door? They have been many advances if garage door technology lately, but there are some significant advantages that an overhead rolling door has over a sectional garage door. The most obvious difference is the manufacturing process and materials used. Typically overhead rolling doors are built with 18–24 gauge steel. The steel is formed into 2” to 3” interlocking slat sections that can be filled with dense insulation. Commercial sectional garage doors are normally made from 24 gauge metal and are often made from even lighter gauge material for residential garage doors. The stronger gauge steel in overhead coiling doors, combined with the smaller, interlocking slats gives roll up doors a big natural security advantage when choosing an overhead garage door for a building. Lastly, commercial rolling doors are built for higher volumes and need less maintenance. Over the life of the garage door, in a commercial setting, you will save money using an overhead coiling door with less maintenance and less downtime.
