Garador Thermoframe Proves Popular as Energy Bills Rise With heating bills going up and up, insulation is now even more of a priority. Leading garage door manufacturer Garador is seeing growing interest in their ThermoFrame for sectional garage doors, as homeowners look for ways to further reduce heat loss from inside the garage and lower their energy bills. Garador sectional garage doors are already renowned for offering excellent insulation properties, with 42mm thick insulated door sections, and the ThermoFrame further reinforces that fact. The ThermoFrame’s plastic profile fits together with the door frame, creating a thermal break between the frame and brickwork. This can improve thermal insulation by up to +15% and is, therefore, an ideal solution for those looking to bolster the energy efficiency of their garage. These doors also have flexible weather resistant rubber seals around all four sides of the door plus a floor seal. This not only helps to reduce heat loss but also prevents draughts and water ingress. On top of that rubber seals are also positioned on the intermediate sections, between each door section, as well as around the door frame to ensure an even better seal. Furthermore, a larger rubber seal on the bottom section will accommodate irregularities in the surface of the floor. In addition to outstanding thermal insulation characteristics, Garador’s sectional garage doors also offer full drive-through width for vehicles entering the garage, which is ideal for wider vehicles like 4x4s and MPVs. As the door moves vertically when opening and closing, it also offers maximum driveway space as you can park right up to the garage door. Garador sectional garage doors come in a full range of standard sizes up to 5500mm wide, 4 designs and a choice of 16 standard colours, homeowners are sure to find a door combination that suits their requirements. With an enhanced thermal insulation offering, it’s no surprise Garador’s ThermoFrame is growing in popularity for an increasingly energy-conscious homeowner.
