Fast Delivery CarTeck Solid Insulated Sectional Garage Door
When you need a premium contemporary garage door without the typical manufacturing wait times, the CarTeck Solid profile model offers the perfect solution. By restricting production to a standard size range of three highly popular stock colours, this standard size special offer guarantees an exceptionally fast delivery turnaround of a maximum of three weeks. It is the ideal choice for rapid property renovations or urgent replacements, delivering world class German engineering directly to your home in record time.
A Sleek, Minimalist Solid Design
The 'Solid' profile offers the ultimate in modern, minimalist aesthetics. Unlike ribbed designs, these panels are completely flat with no horizontal creases or lines, creating a seamless and incredibly sleek appearance that perfectly complements contemporary architecture. Beyond its clean and striking exterior, the door is engineered using incredibly robust 40mm thick panels, constructed from a twin walled steel skin separated by a high density, 'foamed in place' polyurethane core.
Features and Benefits
This fast delivery CarTeck sectional door incorporates all the advanced operational features expected from a premium manufacturer, specifically tailored to accommodate various property styles using our comprehensive range of standard UK sizes.
- Exceptional Insulation: The 40mm thick double skinned steel panels and dense foam core provide outstanding thermal and acoustic insulation, helping to regulate your garage temperature and keep the weather at bay year round.
- Space Saving Vertical Operation: The door sections travel vertically through a track system using multiple rollers. The entire garage door rises upwards through a tight curve and comes to rest in the garage ceiling space parallel to the floor. This vertical operation ensures no drive through width is lost and very little internal wall space is consumed.
- Low Headroom as Standard: You can fit the CarTeck Drive operator in just 120mm of headroom. This low requirement comes as standard on over 95% of all standard door sizes, only increasing to 140mm when double springing is needed on the tallest and widest doors.
- Adaptable Installation Options: If your garage is attached to the house or you have an obstruction like a gas meter in the way, you can utilise the free 240mm headroom kit. This kit lifts the tracks higher and out of the way, providing extra clearance and preventing bumped heads when entering and exiting your garage.
Installation Note (Doors Over 2250mm High): Please be aware that frames for standard doors ordered over 2250mm high are supplied with pre drilled holes. This is only relevant if you are installing the door between the structural aperture (a reveal fit). In these instances, the drilled holes will be visible, meaning you will either need to clad over them yourself or purchase matching 3D 85mm Profile Covers (POA) to conceal them. If you are fitting the door behind the aperture, these holes will naturally be hidden by your brickwork. Please contact us if you require further advice on the best installation method for your property.
This standard size model offers a comprehensive range of the best UK standard dimensions, specifically designed to fit the vast majority of UK garages. To get started, please choose your required width and height first from the drop down menus, and then configure your door using the options available below.
Choose Door Panel Colour Finish:
Select your preferred powder coated colour finish. To ensure our fast delivery turnaround, this special offer is available in our three most popular stock shades: White, Anthracite Grey, or Jet Black. Your external dor finish is a smooth surface texture to complement your minimalist solid panel design, all at no additional cost.
Please note: Where the garage door is exposed to direct and lengthy sunlight, darker colours should ideally be avoided to minimise the risk of panel expansion.
Frame Legs and Head to Match Door Colour:
Choose the colour finish for the outer steel sub frame. Although sectional garage doors are typically installed behind the garage opening (meaning most of the frame is hidden), you will still see the inner edge where it has a small return section. The frame is supplied in white as standard. If any part of the frame will be visible, especially if fitting the door inbetween the structural opening, you can choose to match or contrast the frame colour with your chosen door panels.
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 internal brickwork of a garage. However, it is entirely possible to fit the door inbetween the opening if required. This is ideal for garages with no internal returns or where internal space is restricted by obstacles.
When ordering for an inbetween fit, the sizes must be carefully calculated. You will need to reduce your ordering width and height to accommodate the frame legs, the head section, and a fitting tolerance. Please see our ‘Measure’ tab for full and detailed instructions.
Inbetween Opening Installation Kit:
If you are fitting the door inbetween the structural opening, you will require this specialist kit. It provides the necessary heavy duty bracketry to securely fix the steel sub frame directly within the brickwork aperture.
Choose Remote Control Operator Model:
We highly recommend the CarTeck Drive 600Nm electric operator for the CarTeck Sectional door range. For only a fraction more than the standard 500Nm motor, the 600Nm model delivers a 33% faster opening speed and significantly more lifting power, making it our operator of choice to smoothly lift the 40mm thick solid panels.
The standard CarTeck Drive 600Nm is an integrated, one piece unit containing the boom, motor, and control panel, designed to mount neatly above the door. Alternatively, the Drive Pro 600Nm features a separate control unit that can be mounted on a wall wherever is most convenient in your garage.
Both automation systems include remote control handsets as standard and feature an integrated LED courtesy light that automatically illuminates when the door is operated. You can also add further access controls from our options list as required.
Emergency External Release (Essential for garages without a second entrance):
If you have no alternative pedestrian access into your garage (such as a side or rear door), we strongly advise adding an emergency manual release mechanism. This external, key operated cylinder allows you to manually disengage the motor drive from the outside, enabling you to lift the door by hand in the event of a power failure.
Technical Performance and Specifications
The CarTeck insulated sectional door is precision engineered in Germany to deliver exceptional performance, transforming your garage into a dry, draught free, and secure space. The door leaves are constructed using a highly stable 40mm thick core made of special polyurethane foam, sandwiched between corrosion resistant galvanised steel. This robust multi layer construction provides the smooth, completely flat exterior of the Solid design whilst offering extraordinary wear resistance and security.
Tested Performance Ratings (European Standards):
- Thermal Insulation: The 40mm thick steel panels have a standalone U value of 0.56 W/m²K. When calculated as a complete structural door unit (including all panel joints and weather strips), it achieves an outstanding U value of 1.38 W/m²K.
- Weather Protection: Industrial grade bottom, side, top, and inter panel weather seals work together to keep the elements at bay.
- Windload Resistance: Class 2 (EN 12424)
- Watertightness: Class 2 (EN 12425)
- Air Permeability: Class 2 (EN 12426)
Frame Details and Installation Position
The outer frame legs and head fascia are supplied in a smooth white finish as standard to frame the minimalist solid panels neatly.
Fitting Behind the Opening: This is the standard installation method. The steel frame sits behind the brickwork reveal, completely concealing the frame edges and resulting in no visible frame holes.
Fitting Inbetween the Opening: If you are installing the door within the brickwork reveal, the Inbetween Opening Installation Kit is strictly required to adapt the standard frame.
Sizing adjustments for inbetween fitting: You must deduct 180mm from your structural opening width to determine your ordering width. For the height, deduct 120mm for manual doors and 140mm for electric operation to determine your ordering height (if the additional low headroom fitting bracket is purchased, only deduct 120mm for electric doors).
Please note: The legs of the frame, when fitted inbetween the reveal, will display a series of factory drilled holes. You will require a matching cloaking strip or 3D profile cover (not provided) to conceal these holes for a neat finish.
Hardware and Optional Extras
- Handle: To maintain the sleek, unblemished exterior profile of the Solid design, no external handle is fitted as standard on electric doors. If you intend to use the door manually, a handle set will be required.
- External Emergency Release: Fitted as standard in the top left hand corner of all doors. This allows you to manually detach the motor from the outside in the event of a power cut.
Remote Control Electric Operation
We recommend pairing your door with the highly advanced CarTeck Drive automation system. The CarTeck Drive 600Nm motor is powerful enough to lift any size standard door in this range smoothly and safely. Its fixed chain drive mechanism is significantly quieter and renowned for long term reliability compared to traditional revolving chain or belt designs. All CarTeck Drive 600Nm motors come complete with two Pearl remote control handsets as standard, featuring secure four function buttons.
The difference between the CarTeck Drive and the Drive Pro:
- CarTeck Drive: The standard motor features an integrated drive and control unit that fits discreetly on the ceiling boom directly above the door.
- CarTeck Drive Pro: The Pro version features a separate wall mounted control unit. This can be installed next to an existing power outlet or at a more convenient height in your garage (such as next to a side access door), allowing you to easily open or close the garage using the integrated push buttons on the front of the control box.
Please Note: For door heights greater than 2375mm, a 1096mm boom rail extension will be required at an extra cost to accommodate the extended travel distance.
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.

Important Note
This warranty applies in addition to your statutory rights. For complete peace of mind, installation should always be carried out correctly and the door should be used and maintained in line with the manufacturer’s guidance.
If fitting between the opening, please deduct 180mm from the opening width to determine the ordering width.

How to Measure for Your New CarTeck Sectional Door
Measuring for a sectional garage door is straightforward once you understand how the dimensions work. All CarTeck sectional doors are ordered by their internal structural opening dimensions (the actual drive-through width and height). Unlike some other door types, the steel installation frame is always calculated as an addition or reduction to these internal dimensions, depending on your chosen installation position.
For quick visual reference, please refer to the 3D technical drawings located in the image gallery at the top of this page. These clearly show how the frame fits in relation to the opening.
Measuring for a 'Behind the Opening' Fit (Standard)
This is the ideal and most common way to install a sectional door. The door and its steel framework sit entirely on the inner face of the garage wall.
- Width: Measure the brick-to-brick width of your garage opening in several places. Your ordering width is simply the smallest of these measurements.
- Height: Measure from the finished floor level to the underside of the lintel. Your ordering height is this exact measurement.
- Check your clearances: Because the 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 doors requiring double springing).
Measuring for an 'Inbetween the Opening' Fit
If you do not have internal brickwork returns, the door must be installed directly between the brick pillars using the optional 'Inbetween Opening Installation Kit'.
- Width: Measure your brick to brick opening. To find your ordering width, you must deduct 180mm from this opening size (this allows for the two frame legs and a fitting tolerance).
- Height: Measure your floor to lintel height. To find your 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: Sectional doors travel horizontally into the garage space. It is essential to check that your garage is deep enough to accommodate the full length of the tracks and the motor boom. Ensure you have clear, unobstructed space running back into the garage equivalent to the height of the door plus approximately 350mm to 600mm.
If you have any doubts whatsoever about measuring your garage opening, please contact our team for verification before placing your order.
