Most Portadown call-outs hit Seagoe or Mahon, and we keep stock to match. We build that into every Portadown survey, not the price sheet.
On the residential side, Portadown is dominated by semi detached and industrial units. Spec needs to match — what works on a coastal cottage isn't right for a new-build estate.
Portadown sits 25 mi from Belfast and 12 mi from our Dromore yard via the A3 (with M1 access).
Frame first, then leaves, then locks

Confirm the split and the swing
Even or uneven, and outward or inward opening, decided against how you actually use the Portadown 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 Portadown wind.

Portadown side-hinged door FAQ
Q.Do side-hinged doors need headroom?
Almost none, which is the point. They suit Portadown garages with pitched roofs, low lintels, beams or storage above where tracks simply will not fit.
Q.How do they handle wind on an exposed site?
Hold-open stays are essential near Portadown, otherwise a gust catches a leaf. We fit them as standard on exposed openings.
Q.Why choose side-hinged over a roller in Portadown?
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 Portadown.
Q.How long is the lead time to Portadown?
10-18 working days, longer for painted-to-RAL and timber pairs which are finished to order.
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.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.
