At Teckentrup, we're different. We thrive on finding solutions for you and your customers, you can actually talk to us about what you need and we'll do our best to find the solution. Who else does that?! We build our doors in Warrington so we can flex the way we work to meet that special requirement.

Read on to see some examples of our solution finding...
Garage Door Restore WSM's customer wanted an integrated solution for their garage and side door. Teckentrup was approached for help, so we produced a CarTeck Sectional garage door and a CarTeck side hinged personnel door in matching Georgian design and colour to create continuity between both doors.
Customer satisfaction achieved!
You may often come across a garage door installed below a toplight. Typically an up and over door with a fixed panel above that incorporates windows to allow light into the garage.
The picture shows the clever solution we provided to Oxley Garage Doors (thanks for the photo!). Oxley's customer wanted to retain the appearance of a top light, so we designed a 5 panel high door with the top panel in white and side by side Type 3 rectangle windows.
The result was just what the customer wanted aesthetically with the added benefit of massively increased drive through height and all the perks of a CarTeck Insulated sectional garage door.
Want a “toplight door?” Just ask!
Need a solution to lift your door tracks above entrance doors and gas meters? See how it's done with our clever 240mm headroom kit in this video from Jim! It's completely free of charge!
No more ducking required!
Nortech Garage Door's customer wanted a side hinged garage door but had a very large opening. The solution? We created this striking solid design CarTeck side hinged garage door with D-handles fitted within two fixed side panels. For additional design flare, a Teckentrup Bling Athena window was added along the top panel.
We can always find a solution!
This illustration and images show a sequence of four doors, each door 100mm lower/higher than the next and a 100mm rise/fall across each opening.
We not only manufactured the doors, but also made sure the ribs lined up beautifully across all four doors.
It's all in the detail!
