Low headroom and pitched roofs around Camlough
Camlough sits under the mountain, wind-load spec matters more here than at any other South Armagh village. It's why a templated quote for Camlough usually misses something.
On the residential side, Camlough is dominated by rural cottages and detached housing. Spec needs to match — what works on a coastal cottage isn't right for a new-build estate.
Camlough sits 40 mi from Belfast and 22 mi from our Dromore yard via the A25 (with A1 (Newry) access).
How we hang a pair in Camlough
- 1
Confirm the split and the swing
Even or uneven, and outward or inward opening, decided against how you actually use the Camlough garage.
- 2
Assess the reveal and threshold
Side-hinged doors depend on a sound frame and a level threshold far more than tracked doors do.
- 3
Hang, align and weather seal
Leaves hung on adjustable hinges, brush and rubber seals fitted, then the pair set to meet cleanly.
- 4
Lock and stay fittings
Centre shoot bolts, cylinder lock and hold-open stays so leaves are not left swinging in Camlough wind.
Dropped leaves and failed frames in BT35
Ceilings with no clear run for tracks, such as pitched or beamed roofs
Dropped leaves and hinges pulling out of an old timber frame

Camlough side-hinged door FAQ
Q.Do they insulate well?
A double-skin steel pair with full perimeter seals performs well. Timber pairs look better than they insulate unless specified with an insulated core.
Q.Are they secure?
An insulated steel pair with centre shoot bolts top and bottom plus a cylinder lock is secure. The weak point is always the frame fixing, which is why we renew poor frames.
Q.How long is the lead time to Camlough?
10-18 working days, longer for painted-to-RAL and timber pairs which are finished to order.
Q.Do side-hinged doors need headroom?
Almost none, which is the point. They suit Camlough garages with pitched roofs, low lintels, beams or storage above where tracks simply will not fit.
Q.What does a side-hinged pair cost fitted?
From about £1,150 fitted for an insulated steel pair, with timber and painted-to-RAL finishes higher. We price the frame with the leaves.
Q.Why choose side-hinged over a roller in Camlough?
Because you walk in and out daily. One leaf opens for access without lifting the whole door, which suits garages used as workshops or stores around Camlough.
