Garador’s timber effect garage doors look like real wood
When it comes to choosing between a natural timber garage door and a timber effect one, you might be swayed more toward the timber effect version given how realistic the appearance of the surface finish is. Garador offers two “timber effect” steel garage doors in their up and over garage doors range, where a foil-coat is applied to the surface of the steel for a realistic appearance and durable surface that will last well. This gives the impression of a real woodgrain texture on the surface of the door, but has a lower price point and requires less maintenance than a timber door, which would require regular staining and treatment to help protect it from the elements. There are two models to choose from, Wentwood and Sherwood, each available in either Rosewood or Golden Oak timber effect. The wide profiled design is perfect for modern developments and new homes. Prices start at £719 (excluding vat) for a Wentwood garage door with canopy lifting gear. Contact Garador for more information on Garador’s timber effect garage doors, including their Wentwood and Sherwood models, or any of the Garador solid red cedar range.

www.garador.co.uk Saint-Gobain Glass launches high performance solar control glass
Saint-Gobain Glass has introduced a new double-silver coated solar control glass with a neutral appearance and 75 per cent light transmission, to realise the current architectural trend for large expanses of glass that provide high levels of natural daylight. COOL-LITE®
SKN 183 & SKN 183 II, annealed and to-be-tempered
respectively, not only satisfies the demand for beautifully, neutral glass for facades, it also delivers a range of building performance enhancements, considering the benefits of high light transmission and thermal insulation, along with low internal and external reflectivity. In the UK, building operations accounts for around 30 per cent of CO2
emissions, mainly from heating, cooling and electricity use. In the drive to achieve net-zero carbon
buildings, the consistent use of high performance, coated glass as part of a building facade is necessary. Constructing a robust and energy efficient glazed facade creates a healthy environment for building occupants whilst helping to minimise the effects of building operations on climate change. The COOL-LITE®
range
already pushes the limits for the highest light transmission combined with the best solar control.
