Sectional Garages
Endless Flexibility Provided by Sectional Garages
Their
name says it all, sectional
garages are installed on site by fitting individual sections
together. The usual material currently deployed in the production
of sectional garages is concrete and it is this material that
has seen the sectional garages industry move on from the timber
framed asbestos days of the 1960s and 70s.
Concrete sectional garages normally comprise a series of sectional
concrete panels. The big advantage of concrete prefabricated
garages is that they provide the customer with endless flexibility.
By adding extra sections customers have longer sectional garages,
by taking them away the sectional garages become shorter. This
has little impact on the price of sectional garages, so always
choose the largest size possible as adding panels to sectional
garages after they have been installed can be costly.
Extra panels can also be added to the front and rear sides
of sectional garages to change the width although many customers
prefer sectional garages with wider garage doors to enable easier
access for vehicles.
Concrete
sectional garages are available throughout the UK and can be
found on display at hundreds of outlets including many garden
centres. Most displays will be manned by an expert in sectional
garages who will be able to advise potential customers and arrange
the processing of any orders for sectional garages.
The largest sectional garages manufacturer is Compton Garages.
They have been supplying sectional garages for 50 years throughout
the UK and have a wide range of shapes, sizes and styles of sectional
garages to choose from.
Typically using 2ft (0.61m) wide concrete panels, sectional
garages provide an unrivalled flexibility. Doors and windows
are placed between panels, with sectional garages featuring special
filler panels placed beneath windows enabling doors and windows
to be positioned almost anywhere on sectional garages.
Sectional garages are not only bought by home owners looking
for valuable extra storage space, they are also used commercially
in battery format. Commercial sectional garages feature runs
of sectional garages typically numbering between two and twenty.
Commercial sectional garages are often purchased by local
authorities, housing associations or businesses. These sectional
garages are then rented out to people looking for extra storage
space maybe to help store stock for a business, to free up space
in a property or even to store a car in.
Concrete sectional garages are transported to site by lorry
and then installed by a trained professional who will fix the
sections together. As well as the walls, the roof of a sectional
garage will also be in sections. Sectional garage roofs are usually
fibre cement sheets or steel sheets attached to a series of roof
trusses that help maintain the rigidity of sectional garages.
Flat, apex and Banbury roof pitches are available on sectional
garages to provide a choice of shape. Sectional garages have
progressed over the years and are now available in a choice of
finishes to compliment your home and the surrounding environment.
Finishes include spar (pebble dash), brick and rock. Different
heights of sectional garages are also available through the use
of taller sections and doors taller sectional garages are
ideal for the storage of people carriers, vans and minibuses.
