Enhanced Design with Professional-Grade Performance
The Fort Pro Standard Vertical steel side-hinged garage door elevates the classic vertical ribbed design with reinforced panel construction for greater stability, strength and security. Featuring evenly-spaced vertical ribs running the full height of each door leaf, this design maintains the traditional timber-planked aesthetic whilst delivering professional-grade durability that exceeds standard single-skin specifications.
Reinforced Panel Construction for Superior Performance
Unlike standard single-skin doors, the Fort Pro Standard Vertical features reinforced panel construction that delivers exceptional stability and strength for residential applications. The reinforced steel panels provide reliable security whilst maintaining a manageable weight for smooth manual operation, making this door ideal for homeowners seeking professional-grade quality without the cost of fully insulated systems.
