Here is a perfect example of the up and over steel door that gives the impression of a set of sturdy side hinged doors. The tongue and groove style design runs vertically. 
 
You can have this steel, single skin up and over door panel in a choice of 18 colours, with white RAL 9016 being the standard colour, without upgrade. 
 
This door panel comes with inclusive steel bracing bars across the back to keep your building more secure and offer stability whilst the door is in use. 
 
Also included is the black nylon T shaped handle and a two point lock with two keys, with the option to upgrade to 4 point locking, which is highly recommended and offers a strong resistance to intrusion. 
 
There is the additional option of adding a steel frame that gives a fast installation experience and will be factory fitted, the steel panel paint finish comes with a 10 year warranty for you, and you have the choice of two gears; there is the Canopy gear and the Retractable Gear, with the latter being the one that can have an electric opener fitted with ease after installation. 
 
Application

 Ideal for all residential applications.

Specification

All the Fort steel one piece up and over doors have a strong steel sub chassis with internal bracing plates to ensure the best rigidity of the door panel.

We recommend that any steel up and over garage door is always ordered with a steel fixing sub frame for the best overall results and tolerances.
Timber frames are OK but the price and performance of the steel sub frame makes it not worth bothering with a timber sub frame, which needs treatment or painting once fitted.

Operating Mechanism
The doors are sold fitted with either a canopy or retractable operating mechanism, depending on your requirements.
In general terms the canopy door is used for the smaller single sizes and when the door is only to be manually operated. (Sizes up to 2438mm wide)

The retractable door mechanism is for larger sizes and when you want to have an electric operator fitted.

Handle and Locking
All the Fort up and over doors feature a cable operated locking latch system, operated via the central position handle
Option of 4 point locking for any manual operated door if required for extra security.

A black nylon handle is fitted as standard,  can order the door without a handle, but this should only be for when installing with an electric operator, which can then provide the locking when closed


Colours
18 standard low gloss powdercoat colour finishes are available when ordering and this finish is on both sides of the door panel with the same options

for the steel fixing sub frame. You can have Any Ral colour finish for extra cost, please enquire with the colour reference required.

Fort Pull Handles S/S Care and Maintenance

Fort Up and Over garage doors come with pull handles to the front panel as standard.

The pull handles are made using grade 304 Stainless steel for use externally and internally in heavily sanitised areas such as kitchens and washrooms. 

Like all steel, failure to keep the item clean can cause surface blemishes and what looks like a major product failure and rusting.

You will often find marks appearing in the winter when the roads have been gritted, salt on the surface are all steel products arch enemy.

If your pull bars develop small blemished areas during December, January and February in particular then you should wash them off using cold water and washing up liquid, you can use a cream cleaner like CIF rubbed lightly to remove the blemishes.

If you have them appear it means you have salt on the surface and need to increase the frequency of the door washdown.

Please remember all stainless steel can blemish even knives and forks in a dishwasher because salt is used as a scrubbing agent, wiping blemishes off with a cloth is standard practice and you should treat the door bars the same, clean and wipe regularly. 

If you live close to the sea or estuary you should apply a light oil after washing once a month to keep the item clean and fresh.
