When you need a really big door we have two options. CarTeck XL and CarTeck SuperSize. From the outside they are indistinguishable from our “normal” sized garage doors - the same stunning profiles, the same attractive windows and finishes. The lifting mechanism is where the doors differ - both types use torsion springs, upgraded hardware and specialist high-powered motors.
XL sectional garage doors extend the available size of our standard sectional doors from 5501mm to 6250mm wide by 2500mm high. XL doors have a rear-mount torsion springs, heavy duty roller brackets and panel reinforcing profiles. They are powered by a CarTeck DRIVE 1100 motor.
XL doors are available with a colour matched frame and header in all designs allowing them to be fitted between the reveal and behind the reveal (SuperSize doors can only be fitted behind the reveal).
SuperSize doors are for when things get really big! SuperSize doors start above 5.5m (18’0”) wide to reach 8.0m (26’3”) wide in a single span with heights of up to 3.0m (9’9”). Doors have galvanised frame legs and are supplied without a header and must be fitted behind the reveal.
The weight of a complete door at these sizes is considerable and safe operation is paramount. Safety systems ensure doors stop and reverse should it encounter an obstruction. Teckentrup sectional doors meet all the safety requirements and provisions of BSEN 13241.
This view from the inside of a SuperSize door shows the standard configuration of front mount torsion spring lifting gear, direct drive motor and controls.
Doors have galvanised frame legs and are supplied without a header. The side seals enclose the edge of the galvanised frame leg so it is not visible from the outside of the garage opening.
As part of the CE marking process, each product must have its performance provided for a defined set of characteristics to allow fair comparison between products from different manufacturers. Other characteristics can also be included, if relevant to a door’s performance. The following table shows the performance characteristics of CarTeck XL and SuperSize sectional garage doors.
Our doors and openers are independently tested and certified to all current safety legislation and carry a CE/UKCA mark.
