Industrial Sectional Doors
Before we talk about which kind of Sectional door is right for you, let's take a look at the different between Singleleaf Doors and Sectional doors.
As the names suggest single leaf door is a one-piece panel door which slide or swing in full whereas Sectional doors is a combination of two or more panels joined by steel hinges with each other to form a door surface connected to the track on which it slides. These hinges give flexibility to the panels to bend and follow a curved path while opening and closing as per the design of the track. The sectional door can be designed to slide horizontally or vertically as per the margins available in the sides or margins over the door in the headroom.
Double skinned sectional doors are used in factories, warehouses for loading bays and garage door for residences. Their panels are made up of steel, aluminum, copper, wood and polymer with insulation filling in between the metallic skinned sheet.
Benefits of installing the Sectional Door
Sectional Doors optimizes space
Sectional doors do not occupy space outside in front or inside the door to the dept same. They slide down vertically or horizontally so that the area in front or inside remain usable. Sectional doors are termed as energy efficient door because of the sandwich panel filled with foam or any insulated material. They are ideal for Garages, industry and commercial applications.
Strong and longevity
Each sandwich panel of sectional door will be linked through hinges adjacently and with rollers in the door track to right and left which gives good resistance to any forced entry. The foam insulation between the galvanized steel sheet makes it stronger and make them last long.
Fantastic Insulation.
Sectional doors normally have 40-50mm double-skinned panel sections with insulated foam which provide both weather protection and also prevents heat transfer. These doors acts as an effective thermal break and idle for warehouses and industry which needs a required temperature to be maintained.
Sectional doors are perfect for spaces having head room restriction & uncommon driveways
If you have a very low clearing height or a high entrance way, the sectional doors can be best choice to utilize the space as the sectional panel tracks can be design to slide in these free zones saving space.
Choosing type of Sectional Door depends upon factors like intended use, desired look, insulation requirement and budget, We at INNTESSA deals in Insulated Sectional doors made from sandwich panels having polystyrene filling between the aluminium stucco cladding.
We supply, install and repair following types of Insulated (Sandwich panel) Sectional Doors

Lifitng mechanism / Lift types
Sectional doors utilize different types of lifting mechanisms for opening and closing. Here are some common lift mechanism in Sectional Doors.
Standard Torsion Spring mechanism
It consists of a torsion springs mounted horizontally above the door opening. When the door is closed, the springs are under tension. As the door is opened, the springs unwind and store energy, helping to counterbalance the weight of the door panels.
Extension Spring mechanism
Sectional doors use extension springs, which are mounted on either side of the door, parallel to the horizontal tracks. These springs extend and contract as the door is opened and closed providing the necessary counterbalancing to the door leafs / sections.
Side-Mounted Torsion Spring mechanism
Here, the torsion springs are mounted vertically on each side of the door near the tracks. Side-mounted torsion springs offer an alternative to the standard torsion spring setup and are often used in situations where headroom margins is limited.
High-Lift mechanism
A high-lift system is used when there is a need for additional vertical clearance above the door. This system involves mounting the horizontal tracks higher on the wall and using longer horizontal and vertical tracks allowing the door to travel closer to the ceiling when fully open. The lifting mechanism can be either torsion springs or extension springs as per suitability of design, cost and preference.
Vertical-Lift mechanism
A vertical-lift system is commonly used in commercial or industrial applications with high ceilings. It involves vertical tracks that extend all the way to the wall upto the ceiling or goes straight up to the wall equal or more than the door opening height.
Low-Headroom Mechanism
When there is limited headroom above the door opening, a low-headroom mechanism is being designed. This system utilizes special hardware such as low-headroom torsion brackets or double track systems,to maximize the available space for the door operation.
These are some of the main lift types used in sectional doors. The choice of lift mechanism depends on factors such as available space, lintel margins and side room clearances, ceiling height, desired door operation and the weight of the door. It's important to consult with a INNTESSA door specialist to study your requirement and suggest best lift for troublefree working and long life of your sectional door.
