Bespoke CarTeck Georgian Wood Design Sectional Garage Door
The purpose made CarTeck Georgian Wood Design represents the ultimate combination of classic styling and precision engineering. Manufactured to the exact millimetre of your specific structural opening, this bespoke model completely eliminates the need for unsightly timber infills or awkward cover plates. Defined by its deeply pressed, elegantly symmetrical cassette panelling, it adds breathtaking traditional character to any property. This custom sized door brilliantly replicates the rich, inviting texture of natural timber while actually being forged from incredibly tough, maintenance free steel. Choose from four stunning, highly realistic wood effect finishes: two resilient laminate foils in Golden Oak and Winchester, and two premium painted coatings in Rosewood and Night Oak, allowing you to achieve authentic kerb appeal without the endless cycle of sanding and varnishing.
Flawless Scaling for Large and Non Standard Openings
Originally engineered by the globally respected German brand Teckentrup specifically for the UK market, the bespoke CarTeck range is built to handle the most demanding architectural requirements. This purpose made Georgian model is available in massive continuous spans up to a full 5500 mm wide, scaling its traditional cassette layout perfectly to suit grand double garages. Manufactured right here in the UK, you receive a door tailored exactly to your unique dimensions with remarkably fast turnaround times, all backed by Teckentrup's industry leading warranty terms and exceptional aftercare support.
Uncompromising Climate Control and Comfort
Because a bespoke CarTeck sectional door is manufactured to perfectly match your opening, it seals the space with absolute precision. This instant upgrade transforms a damp, freezing garage into a dry and highly usable environment. The robust 40 mm thick insulated steel cassettes, combined with exact fit perimeter weather seals, aggressively block out wind, rain and street debris. Operating on a smooth vertical track system, the door never swings outwards, granting you the ability to park vehicles right up to the garage entrance and dramatically increasing your functional driveway space.
Defining Features of a Purpose Made CarTeck Door
- Manufactured to the exact millimetre, avoiding the structural compromises of trying to make a standard door fit a unique space.
- Capable of spanning massive structural openings up to 5500 mm wide and 3000 mm high.
- Constructed from 40 mm double skin insulated steel for formidable security, panel rigidity and everyday durability.
- Achieves superior thermal retention with an independently verified whole door U value of roughly 1.38 W/m²K.
- Fitted with heavy duty weather stripping between every panel, the framework and the floor for maximum draught exclusion.
- Fully CE and UKCA marked, having passed demanding European assessments for operational safety and weather resistance.
Superior Factory Finished Colour Options
CarTeck remains unique as the only major UK manufacturer to fully factory finish their bespoke sectional doors in house, guaranteeing impeccable quality control and a finish that perfectly suits British homes.
- This bespoke Georgian model features four incredibly authentic wood effect options.
- The broader purpose made range offers 50 standard solid colours, or the door can be precisely colour matched to almost any RAL shade.
- Select from up to four different external surface textures, such as smooth or authentic woodgrain, at no extra cost.
- Your custom door is supplied with exact colour matched frame legs and headers to guarantee a flawless, integrated exterior appearance.
Traditional Glazing and Window Choices
Introduce welcoming natural light to your garage by adding factory fitted windows directly into the top row of your custom Georgian cassettes. You can maintain the classic aesthetic by choosing rectangular window inserts featuring decorative cross mullions that perfectly complement the panel design. All bespoke glazing utilises highly resilient, scratch resistant double polymer panes, available in clear, frosted, satin or tinted variations to perfectly balance your desired natural light with necessary privacy.
The Power of Smart Automation for Large Doors
Automating a large, bespoke garage door brings incredible daily luxury, allowing you to seamlessly access the garage from your car via remote control. The highly advanced CarTeck DRIVE and MOTOR electric operators are specifically engineered to quietly and effortlessly lift even the heaviest 5500 mm wide custom doors. They feature intelligent force monitoring technology that instantly halts and reverses the door if it detects an obstruction. Available at highly competitive price points, these motors can be easily paired with wireless wall switches, external pin pads or smart app control via SOMweb or myQ.
Maximum Efficiency for Integral Properties
For homes where the garage is built into the main property or sits directly below a living space, the flawless fit and superior thermal retention of a purpose made door is absolutely vital. By sealing the opening perfectly, it significantly curtails heat loss and can actively lower your household energy bills. A warmer, climate controlled garage is essential if you intend to use the area as a home gym, laundry or premium storage space. You can also upgrade the automation system with an automatic humidity sensor, which subtly vents the custom door to clear moisture from a wet car without sacrificing internal warmth.
Heavy Duty Lifting Gear for Bespoke Sizes
Depending on the exact dimensions of your custom door, CarTeck employs highly engineered lifting systems to guarantee a smooth and balanced motion. Standard sizes use highly refined, concealed tension springs, while the larger double width doors up to 5500 mm utilise heavy duty, rear mounted torsion springs and upgraded roller brackets to safely manage the increased panel weight. Regardless of size, every bespoke door and corresponding motor are strictly tested as a complete package to comply with BS EN 13241, ensuring a deeply integrated, quiet and legally certified safety system.
Choose Door Panel Colour Finish:
Create an elegant look with this modern steel door in a classic wood effect in either Golden oak and Winchester Oak in a laminate finish or Rosewood and Night oak in a painted finish.
Frame legs and Head to compliment door colour:
Although many sectional garage doors are fitted behind the garage opening so you don’t see the sub frame you will still see the edge of the frame where it has a small return section. The standard frame leg and head cover colour is white, alternatively, colours can be selected to compliment your door. These colours will be in a painted finish and not an exact match to the main door.
Installation Position:
Tell us whether you are fitting the door behind or inbetween the structural opening.
Sectional garage doors were originally designed to install behind the structural opening of a garage but it is now possible to fit the door inbetween if required – when there are no returns, internal obstacles, etc.
The sizes for ordering should be carefully calculated when fitting inbetween the opening reducing the ordering width by the frame legs and head section along with a tolerance for fitting too. See our ‘Measure’ tab for full details.
Inbetween Opening Installation Kit:
If fitting the door inbetween the structural opening you will need this kit to secure the steel sub frame to the opening with the special set of bracketry.
Choose Remote Control Operator Model
We highly recommend the Carteck Drive 600Nm electric operator for the Carteck Sectional door range. The 600NM is only a fraction more than the 500Nm but it is 33% faster in opening speed and more powerful too obviously and hence our operator of choice for this door range.
The standard Carteck Drive 600Nm is a one piece integrated unit with boom, motor and control in one unit to mount above the door. The Drive Pro 600Nm has a separate control unit than can be mounted wherever is most convenient in your garage to suit.
Both systems have remote control operation as standard and both have an integrated courtesy LED light built in which operated when the motor is used and switches off automatically. Add options for additional control as required from our options list
Emergency External Release for garages with a second entrance:
If you have no other means of access into your garage then we strongly advise you have an emergency manual release mechanism. It is a key cylinder operated from the outside of the door which provides a manual facility to disengage the motor drive from the door enabling the door to be lifted manually when there is a power failure.
Wireless 2 function Wall Switch:
This is a remote control device in the form of a wall mounted 2 button switch to control one or 2 garage doors from inside your garage or home. Like a light switch but without and cables and a battery remote control signal for operation. (Called Access Pack 2).
Panel Construction
The door leaves feature an eight layer construction built around 40 mm thick panels made from twin 0.4 mm galvanised steel skins. These skins are bonded to a highly stable foam core with integrated thermal insulation and finished with highly effective adhesion primers and sealed top coatings for maximum wear resistance. This robust design achieves an impressive complete door thermal insulation U value of 1.38 W/m²K, while the individual panels themselves test at 0.56 W/m²K.
Weather Sealing
Comprehensive weather protection is achieved through flexible rubber sealing positioned at the frame header, down the frame sides and between every single door panel. A heavy duty rubber threshold seal sits at the bottom of the door, and Teckentrup can even manufacture a sloping bottom panel to precisely accommodate uneven garage floors. Additionally, a special plastic element separates the vertical frame sections from the floor to ensure the base aerates quickly and is protected against creeping dampness and corrosion.
Certified Performance
Every CarTeck sectional door is independently tested and CE and UKCA marked to guarantee compliance with all current safety and building legislation. The doors meet the heavy duty demands of everyday residential use and adhere to strict European performance standards.
| Performance Characteristic | European Standard | CarTeck Rating |
|---|---|---|
| Resistance to Windload | EN 12424 | Class 2 |
| Watertightness | EN 12425 | Class 2 |
| Air Permeability | EN 12426 | Class 2 |
| Thermal Transmittance | EN 13241 | 1.38 W/m²K |
| Operating Forces | EN 12604 | 150 N |
Industry Leading Wood Effect Finishes
CarTeck offers incredibly realistic wood effect finishes, ensuring an exact match for almost any architectural style or existing UPVC window frames without the maintenance associated with real timber.
Wood Effects
- Golden Oak (Laminate Foil Finish)
- Winchester (Laminate Foil Finish)
- Rosewood (Painted Finish)
- Night Oak (Painted Finish)
Please note that frame legs, headers and 3D profiles in the Night Oak and Rosewood painted finishes are finished in a matching complementing RAL colour, while Golden Oak and Winchester are supplied as a decorative laminate foil.
Sizes Available
CarTeck sectional doors are manufactured to exact measurements to ensure a perfect fit for almost any garage opening, broken down into three main size categories:
- Standard Range: The normal standard sizing covers door widths up to 5500 mm and door heights up to 3000 mm, offering a made to measure fit for the vast majority of residential double and single garages.
- XL Range: When openings exceed the standard width, the XL sectional garage doors extend the available size from 5501 mm up to 6250 mm wide, with heights available up to 2500 mm.
- SuperSize Range: For exceptionally large spans, SuperSize doors start above 5500 mm wide and can reach a massive 8000 mm wide in a single continuous span, with heights available up to 3000 mm.
Lifting Gear
Standard sized CarTeck doors employ market leading sectional lifting gear featuring fully concealed lifting springs that provide a remarkably quiet and smooth action. The XL and SuperSize models upgrade to rear mount torsion springs, heavy duty roller brackets and extra panel reinforcing profiles to safely manage the increased weight of the larger door leaves. Across all sizes, robust galvanised steel roller blocks and ball bearing runner rails guarantee a long service life with minimal operational noise.
Automation Systems
Teckentrup pairs these sectional doors with smart technology openers that actively monitor operational forces and will push back with 60 kg of force if forced entry is attempted. Integrated control units like the CarTeck DRIVE and CarTeck MOTOR series provide effortless operation with varying power levels, integrated LED lighting and smart home connectivity options.
| Motor Model | Pulling Force | Operating Speed | Lighting |
|---|---|---|---|
| CarTeck DRIVE 500 | 500 Nm | 180 mm/sec | 3 LED Motor Light |
| CarTeck DRIVE 600 | 600 Nm | 240 mm/sec | 6 LED Motor Light |
| CarTeck MOTOR L60 | 600 N | 160 mm/sec | 1 LED Motor Light |
| CarTeck MOTOR L75 | 750 N | 200 mm/sec | 1 LED Motor Light |
Safer, Simpler Installation with Preloaded Tension Springs
Unlike many other sectional garage doors that rely on complex and potentially dangerous high-tension torsion springs mounted directly above the door, the CarTeck system utilises a far safer, multi-spring tension system.
To make installation as straightforward and safe as possible, all single layer spring trays for standard CarTeck doors are now supplied fully pre-assembled straight from the factory. The high level tension springs come preloaded within their fully enclosed steel trays, complete with the lifting cables already perfectly routed and retained by anti-twist brackets. This incredibly smart design not only prevents dirt from entering the mechanism, boosting durability, but it also dramatically speeds up the installation process on site. The multiple spring system evenly balances the weight of the door panels, whilst the dual retaining cables reliably support the door in all situations, meaning it remains safe and operational even in an emergency. Because the springs are safely housed within these steel channels, tensioning the door is significantly safer and easier than wrestling with an exposed torsion spring bar.

How to Measure for Your Bespoke CarTeck Sectional Door
Because this CarTeck Centre Ribbed Wood Design is a purpose made model, getting your measurements right guarantees a flawless, exact fit for your unique garage. Unlike standard doors that force you to compromise with clumsy infill panels or awkward gaps, this custom door is manufactured to your precise internal structural opening dimensions (your actual drive through width and height). The steel installation frame is then calculated perfectly around these bespoke dimensions, ensuring every millimetre of your opening is utilised.
For quick visual reference, please refer to the 3D technical drawings lower down on this page. These clearly show how your custom frame will fit in relation to the opening.
Measuring for a 'Behind the Opening' Fit (Standard)
This is the ideal and most common way to install a purpose made sectional door. By fitting the door and its steel framework entirely on the inner face of the garage wall, you maximise your drive through width and achieve the cleanest possible exterior look.
- Width: Measure the brick to brick width of your garage opening in several places. Because your door is bespoke, your exact ordering width is simply the smallest of these measurements.
- Height: Measure from the finished floor level to the underside of the lintel. Your bespoke ordering height is this exact measurement.
- Check your clearances: Because the custom frame sits behind the brickwork, you must ensure you have sufficient internal space. You will need a minimum of 85mm to 90mm of clear sideroom on both the left and right sides of the opening to accommodate the frame legs.
- Check your headroom: You must also have a minimum of 120mm of clear headroom between the lintel and the ceiling to accommodate the top track and motor (this increases to 140mm for very large purpose made doors requiring double springing).
Measuring for an 'Inbetween the Opening' Fit
If your garage lacks internal brickwork returns, the bespoke nature of this door is a huge advantage. It can be manufactured to sit perfectly directly between the brick pillars using the optional 'Inbetween Opening Installation Kit', maximising the space you do have without overlapping the brickwork.
- Width: Measure your brick to brick opening. Because the frame sits between the walls, to find your exact custom ordering width, you must deduct 180mm from this opening size (this precise deduction allows for the two frame legs and a perfect fitting tolerance).
- Height: Measure your floor to lintel height. To find your exact ordering height, you must deduct 120mm (if installing a manual door or using the additional low headroom bracket) or deduct 140mm (for standard electric operation without the special bracket).
Important Depth Check: Even a custom sized sectional door travels horizontally into the garage space. It is essential to check that your garage is deep enough to accommodate the full length of the precise tracks and the motor boom. Ensure you have clear, unobstructed space running back into the garage equivalent to your custom door height plus approximately 350mm to 600mm.
If you have any doubts whatsoever about measuring for your purpose made garage opening, please contact our expert team for verification before placing your bespoke order.
