When Her Majesty the Queen needed a new garage door at her favourite Castle, you would be forgiven for thinking she may have looked at a German product. However, when the Balmoral Estate made their final decision for the new garage door, there was no hesitation in choosing the UK’s newest and most innovative garage door manufacturer to supply a solution. An increasing number of garage door specialists and their customers are choosing Fort Doors as they have a number of unique products in their range for example: • Canopy doors up to 9’0” wide. • Bespoke solutions limited only by your imagination. • Side hinged doors with up to 6’0” wide leaves.... • Enabling a 9’0” door to be split two-thirds/one-third • Or up to a massive 12’0” wide door with a 50-50 split Both the above side hinged options are available with or without a threshold. And of course Fort Doors liking to go the extra mile, offer a proper handle and 4 point locking on all their side-hinged doors. An example of their bespoke solutions was achieved in November when Fort broke their own record, by taking an order for a one-piece door just 5’2” wide fitted with a steel frame. All of the above doors are available in numerous designs, including their popular small vertically ribbed panel in a laminate finish. Sadly, the Balmoral Estate did not take advantage of any these innovative or unique products, instead in these days of austerity; they chose a standard 7066 horizontal framed canopy door to be supplied and fitted. So, if your customer is looking for an entry level door and wants to stand out from the neighbours, why not make Fort your next stock door choice. With a range of 14 standard colours, and 2 laminate finishes; matching personnel doors; and a range of Timber and GRP doors, why not support British manufacturing?
