Certificated to: STS202 (BR1) - Requirements for burglary resistance of construction products
Factory Fitted Steel Fixing Frame
We highly recommend the Garador steel fixing frame as it offers the tightest tolerance around the edge of the door panel, creating a faster and neater fit compared to a standard timber subframe.

Choose Handle Option
Choose either a black nylon handle or a high quality diecast metal handle in white, brass or chrome effect.
Extra Security Locking
For manually operated doors we offer the option to upgrade to a 4 point locking rod system for improved security and resistance to forced entry. Combined with a steel sub frame the Garador locking rod system utilises the steel closing lip along with steel plates to prevent easy access to the internal locking catches for the door.
The improved security of a locking latch in each corner protects against forced entry.
Suitable for retractable gear options the electric operated ‘De Latch Security Locking’ system works with the existing manual locking mechanism, and the remote control operator, by connecting with a mechanical latching system to provide 3 point locking security.
The ‘De Latch Security Locking’ system is not suitable for canopy doors.
Emergency External Release
Required for garages without alternative means of access to the garage. This system attaches a cable internally, within the garage, and offers a way to externally disconnect the remote control operator towing arm, perfect in the event of a power failure.
Remote Control Electric Operator
Complete with two hand transmitters the Garamatic 9 electric operator is reliable, secure and offers excellent value for money. The operator is maintenance free and creates a super smooth and quiet door. Other features include a manual override option, for the event of power failure, an integral LED light with 10 LEDs to combine for low power consumption and it complies with the latest European safety standards.
Garador Guardian Range Doors are not suitable for automation.
The Guardian Range of doors come complete with:
Lock Body Protection
A reinforcing plate has been added to the lock body to prevent attack against the locking mechanism. This new plate protects both the lock body and the central locking rod anchor points.
Anti-Snap Cylinder
The standard cylinder has been changed for a new anti-snap version. The new cylinder is designed to prevent entry even after an attack.
High Security Bracing
Braces at the back of the door have been increased from 2 as standard to 8 braces for extra protection. The number of spot welds has been increased by more than 40: further securing the door skin.
Improved Lock Security
Additional plates added to the base corners protect the bottom locking points of the door. These plates ensure the bottom latches remain intact even under extreme attack to prevent access.
Canopy Gear - The canopy gear allows the door to travel in vertical tracks and is counterbalanced by an overhead torsion spring.
The nominal drive through clearance is 40mm less than the opening width and 130mm less than the opening height.
