We need to replace our rotting wooden garage doors.
House is 1930s. They are wooden and side hinged with 2 rows of small windows at the top. The garage is attached to the house.
It is too small for our car to fit into, so it is used for storage only.
We have had a couple of quotes for metal replacements. Up and over are cheaper by a couple of hundred pounds.
However, we think side hinged will be easier for them to fit (ie we won't need to make room for the up and over mechanism) and more practical eg DCs could open themselves when they are older to get bikes out.
Aside from the cost savings, have I missed anything about up and over?
TIA
