The many advantages of a motorized driveway are well established. This is why more and more individuals do not hesitate to equip their property with it. So I, too, succumbed to the comfort of the automation of my garage door.
Replacing my garage door was an opportunity for me to learn about motorization. However, before installing the system, I first had to devote myself to the selection of the gate model. Fortunately, to make things easier for me, I found everything I was looking for on www.hormann.fr, an online store particularly renowned for the quality of their articles. As for the new entrance, as I had no intention of doing any work, synonymous with additional expenses, I ordered a sectional door.
Moreover, I really like this type of opening, because it is very practical and the space saving achieved is very interesting. Indeed, with very little space, sectional models can be suitable for all garage configurations, whether it is on the side of the road or on sloping ground. Alternatively, roll-up doors are also suitable for cramped premises insofar as the shutters are housed directly under a box placed above the garage opening.
Otherwise, with an entirely different operation, the tilting model is the most common in private homes, just like the leaf. Now, concerning the material of the gate, even if I find the wood very aesthetic and warm, I bet on the solidity and the robustness of the white grooved steel. In addition, this material has good thermal insulation. Otherwise, I was offered the option of installing a gate for the passage of a bicycle, but I do not need it at the moment. Maybe I'll install some one day.
Once the characteristics of the door are finally defined, we can finally devote ourselves to its automation. A word of advice:take my example, opt for a model that is already equipped with a motor. So you don't waste your time looking for the right system, especially if you don't know anything about it.
Many parameters will indeed have to be taken into consideration, to name only the dimensions of the garage or the type and size of the opening. Thereafter, it is necessary to choose judiciously the motorization system which is best suited. For good reason, this equipment still has a cost and there is no question of being wrong. The possibilities are numerous between axial tubular motorization, arm, chain, rack... It is better to seek advice from a professional.
I am particularly satisfied with the device of my door which is both very easy to handle, but above all exceptionally quiet. And once closed, the door is even equipped with an anti-lifting safety device, which is particularly effective in avoiding incidents. Unless you do the assembly yourself, you will have to plan for the costs of any technician's intervention for the installation.
