The Fort Solid Panel door features a completely smooth, uninterrupted face that delivers a pure minimalist aesthetic. The broad, flat surface spans the entire height and width of each leaf without visible ribs, panelling or detailing, creating a contemporary, uncluttered look that suits modern architectural styles. This clean design approach allows the door to act as a simple backdrop that can be enhanced with bold, statement paint colours or kept understated with neutral, muted tones to match surrounding finishes. The seamless surface reflects light evenly throughout the day, which can emphasise the quality of the finish and the precision of the installation. With no grooves, recesses or raised profiles to collect dirt or debris, the Solid Panel design is particularly practical in urban or roadside locations where airborne grime can be an issue. The unadorned styling makes it easy to coordinate the garage door with front entrance doors, window frames and external cladding, helping to create a unified, cohesive appearance across the whole property frontage.
Fort 20 mm Insulated Side Hinged Range
Fort's 20 mm double-skinned steel side hinged doors combine a rigid outer skin with an insulated core to deliver improved thermal performance, strength and a quality closing action. The doors are supplied as complete pre-assembled units with steel frame and hardware, helping to ensure accurate installation, smooth operation and long-term reliability.
Construction & Insulation
The door leaves use a double-skinned steel construction with approximately 20 mm of insulation, creating a stable panel that feels solid in everyday use. This insulated build helps reduce heat loss compared to single-skin doors, supporting more comfortable temperatures if the garage is used as a workshop, gym or utility space.
Frames, Seals and Weather Protection
Each door set is supplied with a matching steel sub frame, allowing the door and frame to work together as a single engineered unit. Circumferential seals around the leaves and frame edges help minimise draughts, wind-blown debris and rain ingress, which is particularly valuable on exposed UK driveways.
Hardware, Locking and Operation
Fort side hinged doors use robust hinges and proven locking hardware designed for frequent pedestrian access rather than occasional vehicle use. The easy swing-open action makes it simple to step in and out of the garage without operating a full lifting mechanism, ideal when the garage is used daily for storage, hobbies or home business activities.
