Hormann Garage Doors
Hormann product reviews
The below reviews are from our installers who have fitted hundreds, if not thousands of hormann doors during their long fitting careers.
Ryan: - Birmingham, Midlands
I’ve been installing Hormann doors from day one. The Hormann sectional is the best one out there, easy to install, good solid door, better than most of the other makes available. Other manufacturers come and go and most try to copy Hormann’s ideas in some way.
Mark: – Essex and London
I’m not for praising garage door manufacturers but in fairness Hormann’s doors are as good as you’ll get. The Hormann up and over door panels are well assembled with good lifting gear, not the Mickey Mouse stuff you get on some makes. The single sectional doors are a doddle to fit and the sections fit very snuggly together. The foiled wood effect finishes are better than the weird paint finishes some other makes have moved over to.

Hormann Sectional Garage Doors
In 1994 Hormann Garage Doors pioneered the European sectional garage door which offers many advantages over an up & over door. Hormann revolutionised the UK garage door market with the introduction of their sectional garage doors. Hormann Sectional Doors are maintenance-free, offer high security, are draught-proof and ensure maximum drive-through width and height.
All Hormann sectional doors come complete with a frame and are available in numerous colours and finishes, including the Hormann Decograin range of foil laminate finishes, which look like timber but without the maintenance. Many of the doors sold are the Hormann LPU 42, a highly insulated 42mm thick version of the sectional door, at very affordable prices. Please see our price guarantee applying to all our products.

All insulated and timber Hormann sectional garage doors are now Secured By Design, as standard, when fitted with a Hormann operator.

In 2013, all Hormann insulated sectional garage doors and
timber sectional garage doors fitted with a Hormann Promatic or Supramatic motor became accredited with Secured by Design status in recognition for their market leading security features.
Double-skinned Hormann LPU garage doors offer the best possible insulation if you use your garage as a hobby room and would like to keep your energy costs low. The 42mm sections give the door greater stability, make for quiet operation and give maximum thermal and acoustic insulation.
Hormann Up and Over Garage Doors
Hormann up & over range of doors are manufactured in a choice of steel, timber or GRP (glass reinforced plastic). The steel doors, chassis and gears are made in Germany with the timber and GRP infill panels assembled in the UK to reduce lead times.
The galvanised and powder coated door chassis is light, but strong, using patented metal folding and secret welding techniques, not pop-rivets and adhesive which some manufacturers use. All Hormann up & over canopy doors have die cast alloy cable drums, rather than plastic, for strength and reliability. All canopy and retractable doors have CE compliant anti-drop mechanisms, rod operated two-point locking and a 10 year Hormann guarantee.
Die cast alloy lifting drums and 2.4mm thick lifting cables as standard on all Hormann canopy doors

Hormann Promatic and
Hormann Supramatic are manufactured by Hormann in Germany and come with two high quality hand transmitters as standard with numerous control options and extras available.
