Garador Beaumont with Windows Steel Side Hinged Garage Door, Purpose Made
The purpose made version of the Garador Beaumont with Windows features four glazed windows across the top of the door, two on each leaf, sitting above two rows of tall pressed steel panels. Built to the exact overall width and height of your garage opening, it is the ideal model to choose when you want natural daylight inside the garage and a clean brick to brick fit in a non standard opening without wide timber packers or trims showing either side.
Natural light makes a big difference if your garage doubles as a workshop, home gym, utility room, or hobby space and does not have an external window of its own. Because the windows are set high at the top of the door leaves, you get bright daylight inside without passers by being able to look straight in at eye level.
Why Side Hinged Works Better Day to Day
• Easy walk in access: Open just the right hand leading leaf with the lever handle to step in and out on foot without lifting a heavy full width door.
• Full internal ceiling space: Outward opening leaves mean no overhead tracks or springs inside, keeping the rafters clear for lighting or storage.
• Daylight with privacy: Top mounted windows brighten up dark garages while keeping bicycles, tools, and appliances out of sight.
• Held safe in the wind: Mechanical metal door stays hold the leaves open securely, while gas pistons cushion the closing swing.
Choosing Your Windows and Glazing
• Window style (same price): Choose between Standard (plain rectangular pane), Cross (traditional four pane cross bar), or Diamond (classic diamond lattice).
• Glazing finish (same price): Choose Clear polycarbonate glazing, or Stippled (obscure) glazing for extra privacy from the street.
• Window frames: Supplied in White or Brown as standard, or factory colour matched to your chosen door colour at extra cost.
Please note that factory colour matched window frames are not available in Burgundy Brown or Golden Brown (brown frames are normally used on these shades). On coloured doors ordered without the factory colour match option, standard white window frames can also be painted on site.
Key Features
• Made to your exact overall size, from 2234mm to 2539mm wide
• Made to measure heights from 1991mm to 2196mm overall
• Supplied factory framed in a 75mm steel frame and fully assembled
• Black lever handles inside and out with top and bottom shoot bolts on the fixed leaf
• Concealed hinges, hydraulic gas pistons, metal door stays, and a 20mm floor threshold
• Traffic White (RAL 9016) as standard, with 18 optional colours at extra cost
Construction
High grade galvanised steel panels are built around a rigid welded steel box section chassis and factory powder coated inside and out, with the shatter resistant polycarbonate window cassettes fitted at the factory. The door arrives prehung in its 75mm wide steel frame (with a 60mm high head), finished to match the door colour and ready to fix between your brickwork.
Size Range, Split and Ordering
The purpose made Beaumont with Windows can be manufactured from 2234mm to 2539mm wide and 1991mm to 2196mm high overall (including the steel frame). It comes as an equal 50/50 split as standard with two windows per leaf, and a 1/3 and 2/3 split is available at the same price at 2234mm overall width only (with one window in the 800mm leading leaf and two in the wider fixed leaf). Please call or email us to arrange the 1/3 and 2/3 split.
You order by the overall width and height of the door and steel frame together. Please also have your brick to brick measurements to hand at checkout to pop into the comments box.
* See the Measure tab for step by step measuring instructions and a worked example.
Garador Purpose Made Steel Side Hinged Door Options
These options apply to the purpose made Garador Beaumont with Windows (and across the wider made to measure Garador steel side hinged range). The panel design, window choices, colours, and hardware are identical to the standard size doors, with the only differences being the custom sizing and the width limits on asymmetric splits.
Windows, Glazing and Window Frame Colours
The Beaumont with Windows features a top row of glazed windows across the door leaves (four windows on a 50/50 split door, or three windows on a 1/3 and 2/3 split door) with the following choices:
• Window styles (no extra cost): Choose between Standard (plain open rectangular pane for maximum light), Cross (traditional Georgian style cross bars dividing each window into four panes), or Diamond (classic diamond lattice pattern).
• Glazing finish (no extra cost): Available in either Clear polycarbonate glazing for an unobstructed view out, or Stippled (obscure) polycarbonate glazing, which lets natural daylight flood into the garage while obscuring the view inside from the street.
• Window frame colours: Window cassette frames are supplied in White or Brown as standard. On coloured doors, you can upgrade to factory colour matched window frames at extra cost so the window surrounds match your chosen door colour inside and out.
Please note that factory colour matched window frames are not available on Burgundy Brown or Golden Brown doors (brown window frames are normally chosen on these two colours). On coloured doors ordered without the factory colour match option, standard white window frames can also be painted on site.
Door Colour
Every door is powder coated in Traffic White (RAL 9016) as standard on both the inside and outside faces, with the steel frame finished to match. A further 18 factory powder coated colours are available at extra cost:
• Agate Grey RAL 7038
• Anthracite Grey RAL 7016
• Black RAL 9005
• Blue RAL 5005
• Burgundy Brown
• Chartwell Green
• Dark Brown RAL 8028
• Fir Green RAL 6009
• Golden Brown
• Green RAL 6005
• Light Grey RAL 7035
• Light Ivory RAL 1015
• Pigeon Blue RAL 5014
• Red RAL 3003
• Slate Grey RAL 7015
• Steel Blue RAL 5011
• Stone Grey RAL 7030
• Window Grey RAL 7040
* Colours on screen are a guide only. Please check against a physical RAL colour card if you are matching existing doors or windows.
Handles
• Black lever handle outside and inside: Included as standard for easy everyday opening from either side.
• Black plastic knob outside with lever inside: The fixed outside knob means the door can only be opened from the outside using the key, so it cannot be left accidentally unlocked.
• Anodised aluminium lever handles in White: Matching lever handles inside and out.
• Anodised aluminium lever handles in Chrome effect: Smart metallic lever handles inside and out.
On the inside, a central flip up handle on the fixed leaf releases both the top and bottom shoot bolts in one go, saving you reaching up to the top frame or bending down to the floor.
Leading Leaf
The leading leaf is the door you open first and the one fitted with the outside handle. The right hand leaf leads as standard when viewed from outside. A left hand leading leaf is available at extra cost if a wall, fence, or driveway layout makes the right hand side awkward to open.
Door Split
Purpose made steel doors are supplied with an equal 50/50 split as standard. A 1/3 and 2/3 split is available at the same price, depending on the door design and overall width:
• Beaumont with Windows, Beaumont, Georgian, and Cathedral: 1/3 and 2/3 split available at 2234mm overall width only
• Carlton: 1/3 and 2/3 split available on any overall width up to 2234mm
• Ascot: 50/50 split only
On a 1/3 and 2/3 Beaumont with Windows door, the smaller leading leaf is 800mm wide with one top window and the wider fixed leaf carries two top windows, with the pressings set out in three columns across the door. Please call or email us if you would like to order a 1/3 and 2/3 split.
Use
Suitable for domestic garages and lightweight commercial use.
Garador Purpose Made Steel Side Hinged Specification
Door Construction
Single skin high grade galvanised steel door panels built around a rigid welded steel box section chassis for strength and stability. Doors are factory powder coated in Traffic White (RAL 9016) inside and out as standard, with 18 optional powder coated colours available (see the Options tab for the full colour list).
Factory Framed
Door leaves are supplied factory pre framed ready for site installation, finished in the same colour as the door panels. The steel frame uprights are 75mm wide (150mm total width), the head section is 60mm high, and the frame is 75mm deep. These frame dimensions are included in your overall ordering size. Viewed from outside, the right hand leaf leads as standard and the left hand leaf is the fixed leaf (meaning the fixed leaf is on the right hand side when viewed from inside the garage).
Concealed Hinges
Heavy duty hinges are concealed neatly within the 75mm steel frame, with no hinge knuckles standing proud of the exterior door surface.
Two Point Shoot Bolt Locking and Floor Level
Internal shoot bolts are fitted at the top and bottom of the inner leading edge of the fixed leaf, and the active leading leaf locks tightly against it via a Euro cylinder lock and lever handle. The overlapping centre stile helps prevent forced entry to the locking system. Please note that the garage floor must be finished and level across the threshold for the bottom bolt to engage properly.
Door Stays and Gas Pistons
Solid metal door stays with a pull cord release hold the leaves securely open so wind cannot blow them shut, paired with hydraulic gas pistons on each door leaf for a smooth, controlled closing motion.
Weather Seals and Aluminium Threshold
Sturdy rubber weather seals are built into the door frame along the door stop and leading door leaf, sealing around three sides of the opening to help prevent draughts. A 20mm high aluminium floor threshold is supplied as standard for the base of the door.
Handles and Internal Release
A black lever handle is supplied on the right hand leading leaf as standard (viewed from outside), paired with a centrally located flip up handle on the inside of the fixed leaf that releases the top and bottom shoot bolts in one movement.
Windows and Glazing (Beaumont with Windows Only)
On the Beaumont with Windows model, the top row of panels is fitted with shatter resistant single glazed polycarbonate window cassettes (four windows on a 50/50 split door, or three windows on a 1/3 and 2/3 split door). Available in Standard plain, Cross lattice, or Diamond lattice window styles with a choice of clear or stippled (obscure) glazing. Window frames are supplied in white or brown synthetic cassettes as standard, with factory colour matched window frames available at extra cost on all door colours except Burgundy Brown and Golden Brown.
Purpose Made Size Range
• Carlton: 1930mm to 2539mm wide x 1891mm to 2196mm high overall (including steel frame)
• Ascot, Georgian, Beaumont, Cathedral, and Beaumont with Windows: 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high overall (including steel frame)
Please see the Measure tab for step by step measuring guidance.
Fixing and Drive Through Clearance
These doors are designed for in between brickwork fixing, with a recommended minimum fitting clearance of 5mm per side. Fixing behind the brickwork opening is not recommended. With both leaves open to 90 degrees, the nominal drive through clearance is 30mm less than the nominal opening width (or 180mm less than the overall frame width) and 125mm less than the opening height.
Door Split and Outward Operation
Supplied as an equal 50/50 split as standard, with a 1/3 and 2/3 split available on selected designs and widths (see the Options tab). Both door leaves open outwards as standard, providing unrestricted ceiling and wall space inside the garage.
Standards and Use
All Garador garage doors are BS EN 13241 compliant to the latest safety standards and are suitable for domestic garages and lightweight commercial use.
* Because purpose made doors are manufactured to the exact overall dimensions you provide, please double check your brickwork measurements before ordering.
Installing Your Purpose Made Garador Steel Side Hinged Door
Your purpose made door arrives fully assembled and hung in its steel frame, built to the overall size you ordered. The hinges, handle, locking, stays and gas pistons are all fitted at the factory, so on site it's a case of fixing the frame into the opening. It's a job a competent DIYer can manage with a helper, or a local fitter can do it for you.
Installation instructions are supplied with every door.
Before You Fit
- Re measure the opening before fitting day and check it against your door size. The frame should go in with the fitting tolerance you allowed when ordering, around 10mm on the width and 5mm on the height
- A level, finished floor is essential, as the bottom shoot bolt drops into the floor to lock the fixed leaf
- The doors open outwards, so make sure there's clear, level ground in front of the garage for both leaves to open fully
- The frame is designed to fit between the brickwork. Fitting behind the reveals isn't recommended
- Check the brickwork either side can take fixings, especially on older properties where purpose made doors are most common
During Fitting
Fix the frame plumb and square, checking the diagonals. On older openings that aren't quite true, pack behind the frame at the fixing points rather than forcing it to follow the brickwork. A twisted frame stops the leaves meeting evenly and the seals closing properly.
Looking After Your Door
The door is factory finished and doesn't need painting. Wash it down with warm soapy water now and again, and clean off salt, bird droppings or anything corrosive promptly. Touch up any scratches straight away to stop corrosion. Lightly lubricate the hinges, lock and shoot bolts once or twice a year, using graphite powder rather than oil on the lock cylinder.
Garador Steel Side Hinged Door Warranty
Garador cover the safe and reliable function of their steel side hinged garage doors for 10 years from the date of purchase. A 5 year warranty applies to the hinges. Replacement parts are covered for 6 months, or to the end of the original warranty period, whichever is longer.
What's Covered
During the warranty period Garador will put right any defect that can be shown to be caused by a material or manufacturing fault. At their discretion they'll replace the faulty part, repair it or offer a reduction in price. The costs of removal, refitting and carriage aren't covered, and any replaced parts become the property of Garador Ltd.
Requirements
Warranty claims only apply in the country where the door was bought, the door must have been bought through Garador's authorised distribution, and the warranty only covers the door itself. You'll need the completed warranty card and your dated proof of purchase to make a claim.
What Isn't Covered
- Normal wear and tear
- Incorrect installation
- Lack of care and maintenance
- Incorrect use, at first or later on
- Deliberate or careless damage
- Fire, water, salts, alkaline solutions, acids and abnormal environmental conditions
- Damage in transport or fitting
- Priming and other surface treatments, including treatments applied incorrectly or too late
- Repairs by unqualified persons
- Use of non Garador parts without the manufacturer's approval
- Removal or defacing of the product number
Looking After the Finish
Minor scratches and marks aren't covered and should be touched up straight away to prevent corrosion. Touching up minor surface damage with a touch up spray or paint stick won't affect your warranty. Corrosive substances like salt should be washed off promptly.
Making a Claim
If you need to make a claim, please contact us with your name, address and phone number, your original invoice, the door type and product number, and a description of the problem. Garador may need to inspect the door in place. If the claim turns out not to be covered, the cost of the inspection visit may be charged.

Measuring for a Purpose Made Garador Steel Side Hinged Door
Purpose made doors are ordered by the overall width and overall height of the door including its steel frame, which comes factory fitted. The frame uprights are 75mm wide and the head is 60mm high.
Size Range by Design
| Model | Purpose made overall size range W x H |
|---|---|
| Carlton | 1930mm to 2539mm wide x 1891mm to 2196mm high |
| Ascot | 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high |
| Georgian | 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high |
| Beaumont | 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high |
| Cathedral | 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high |
| Beaumont with Windows | 2234mm to 2539mm wide x 1991mm to 2196mm high |
How to Work Out Your Ordering Size
- Measure the opening brick to brick across the width, at the top, middle and bottom. Use the smallest figure.
- Measure from the finished floor to the underside of the lintel, on both sides and in the middle. Use the smallest figure.
- Take at least 10mm off the width and 5mm off the height. These are total allowances, not per side. If the opening is out of square or the brickwork is uneven, allow a little more.
- The figures you're left with are your overall ordering width and height.
No fitting tolerance is added at the factory, so the door will be made to exactly the size you give us.
Choosing Your Size Online
Choose the width and height options your ordering size falls into, then enter your exact overall width and height when prompted.
| Width option | Covers overall widths |
|---|---|
| Up to 2234mm (Carlton only) | 1930mm to 2234mm |
| Up to 2384mm | 2235mm to 2384mm (from 2234mm on Ascot, Georgian, Beaumont, Cathedral and Beaumont with Windows) |
| Up to 2539mm | 2385mm to 2539mm |
| Height option | Covers overall heights |
|---|---|
| Up to 1990mm (Carlton only) | 1891mm to 1990mm |
| Up to 2041mm | 1991mm to 2041mm (Carlton from 1891mm on widths up to 2234mm) |
| Up to 2196mm | 2042mm to 2196mm |
Worked Example
Your brick to brick opening is 2300mm wide and 2150mm high. Take off the tolerance and your overall ordering size is 2290mm x 2145mm. Choose the up to 2384mm width option and the up to 2196mm height option, then enter 2290mm x 2145mm as your exact size.
Clear Opening Inside the Frame
The clear opening inside the frame is 150mm narrower and 60mm lower than your overall size. On a 2290mm x 2145mm door that's 2140mm wide x 2085mm high. With the leaves open, their thickness takes a little more off the usable width.
* If your ordering size matches one of the standard sizes exactly, for example 2234mm x 2041mm, check the standard size listing as it will usually work out cheaper.
* If you can't find the size you need in the drop down menus, please call or email us.
