Side hung Garage Doors for security
Side Hung Garage Doors open outward on sturdy hinges to give you full use of the garage opening without losing any interior space. These doors suit homes that need easy pedestrian access and strong garage door security. They match both modern and traditional styles because you can choose from steel finishes for maximum durability or timber effect finishes for a warmer appearance.
Moreover, each door panel attaches to heavy-duty hinges that hold the door firmly in place. These hinges prevent sagging and guide the door smoothly every time you open or close it. The secure hinge system reduces wear on moving parts, so you spend less time on maintenance and more time enjoying a reliable garage entrance.
Garage Security
Security remains a top priority with Side Hung Garage Doors. Beretta fits each model with multiple locking points that fasten the door securely to the frame, and anti-lift devices prevent intruders from forcing the door upward. Hardened steel latches resist cutting and drilling, while reinforced frames add extra strength. These combined features raise the level of garage door security and help protect your home and belongings.
Insulation plays an important role in these doors. Insulated Side Hung Garage Doors use foam-filled panels that reduce heat loss and block drafts. This feature keeps your garage warmer in winter and cooler in summer, and it also cuts outside noise. If you use the garage as a workshop or gym, you will appreciate the quieter space and lower heating costs.
Flexible sizing
These doors fit a wide range of openings, from narrow single-car garages to double-car driveways up to six metres wide. Each door leaf can span three metres, which maintains symmetry on larger openings. The flexible sizing makes it simple to replace old doors, and it also suits new garage builds. You can achieve a consistent look across different projects with the same door style.
Operation stays straightforward with Side Hung Garage Doors. You lift each leaf by a handle that sits comfortably in hand, and the hinges guide the door upward. For added convenience, you can add spring assistance to offset the door’s weight. This lets you open and close it with minimal effort. If you prefer automation, you can fit a motor inside the frame and control the door with a key switch or handset.
Colours and finishes
Beretta offers a wide range of finishes to complement your home. You can choose from standard colours or any shade in the RAL palette to match your exterior trim. Powder coating provides long-lasting colour stability and protects against fading. If you prefer a natural look, a woodgrain effect finish creates the warmth of timber with the durability of steel.
Weather seals line the top and sides of each door to block rain, wind, dust and insects. A threshold seal at the bottom prevents water from entering the garage. This protection helps keep stored items safe and dry. In addition, safety edges can stop the door if it meets resistance, preventing finger pinches or damage to vehicles. For extra light, you can add vision panels in clear or frosted glass that let in daylight without compromising security.
Garage door maintenance
Maintenance takes little time and requires no special tools. You clean the door surface with a damp cloth and check hinges and locks once a year for signs of wear. A small amount of lubricant on moving parts ensures smooth operation. These simple steps help preserve both the function and security of the door for years to come.
Beretta provides expert fitting for every Side Hung Garage Door to ensure perfect alignment and optimal performance. Technicians measure the opening precisely, install the frame securely and level the doors before setting the locks and weather seals. A final test confirms that the door opens and closes smoothly and that all safety features work correctly. You also receive a full parts warranty and access to Beretta’s support team, so you can address any questions or adjustments quickly.
