The Garador Tudor is designed to echo classic Tudor and mock-Tudor frontages, with applied timber features forming bold diagonal and vertical patterns across the door. It is a distinctive, statement design that really only looks right on houses with similar timber detailing on the upper storeys or gables. Where that style is already in place, though, the Tudor door pulls the garage firmly into the overall look of the house instead of leaving it as a plain afterthought.
The Garador Tudor is a timber up and over door designed to echo traditional Tudor and mock-Tudor styling, with applied timber feature boards set over panelled backgrounds. The strong diagonal and vertical lines across the face create a very distinctive pattern that ties in well with properties that already have timber framing or similar detailing on the upper storeys. This is very much a statement door, suited to homes where the garage is a key part of the overall frontage.
Built using a combination of exterior plywood panels and solid timber feature boards on a rigid framework, the Tudor door offers the appearance of traditional decorative framing with the reliability of modern construction. The timber elements are factory prepared with a neutralising base stain as standard, and there is also the option of six different factory applied stain colours if you want the door to arrive fully finished. That flexibility allows you to get very close to the look of original Tudor joinery while benefiting from a complete, engineered door set.
The Tudor model is supplied in standard single sizes with both canopy and retractable gear options, making it suitable for a wide range of garages where headroom and internal space allow. Choose retractable gear and you can add a compatible electric operator package, including all necessary brackets, to create a fully automated timber door. An optional white or dark brown steel sub frame helps with alignment and fixing, and gives a crisp edge around the door leaf that contrasts nicely with the darker Tudor style timber work.

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.
Canopy mechanism with steel frame
Retractable mechanism with steel frame
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. Short K boom is included with this motor, it will be suitable for doors up to 2500mm high.

De-Latch Security Locking Kit When an electric operator is fitted the garage door only locks on the operator – the door is not locked on the locking catches fitted to the door. A delatch kit will engage the locking catches on the garage door as well providing a further level of security
