Design Your Own Door

Open-for-infill

Hands on and watch your own ideas take shape

It can be fun to be hands on and creative, and installing the timber boarding to a Hormann  'open for infill' couldn't be any easier. Hormann supplies the sturdy box section steel frame and horizontal struts predrilled at 30mm spacings. Broaden your horizons and let your creative talent take control. Regardless of whether the boarding is arranged vertical, horizontally, diagonally or according to your own custom design, you can display your own creation with pride.

(Extra supporting has to be considered for doors involving horizontal boards as they are not supported by the steel struts running horizontally)

This is the solid basis for the door

• Extremely sturdy frame construction with fully welded reinforced struts

• Fully galvanized door leaf frame additionally with high-grade polyester primer coating (Dark Brown RAL 8028 or White RAL 9016)

  Illustrated fitting instructions with suggested designs

• Wide range of standard sizes and purpose made sizes available from the N80 and N500 range

It goes without saying that the open for infill frames are also available for double garages. While creating your infill please respect the following infill weights for your own safety and security:

• Single size depending on exact door size, infill weight between six and 10kg/sqm for standard springs but these can be uprated at extra cost.

• Double garage door size, maximum infill weight 7kg/sqm as standard

Advice on site treatment

Once fitted and installed, it is essential that you treat your timber door with a commercially available pigmented wood preservative to protect it against UV rays as well as fungal and insect attack. Sikkens and Sadolin provide these products and are highly recommended.

Long lasting and durable

Of course you can also apply a GRP door leaf to our open-for-infill frames.
