How to Measure Your Opening

  1. Measure the width of the opening at the widest point
  2. Measure the height from the floor to the top of the opening
  3. Measure available headroom — distance from top of opening to ceiling
  4. Measure available side room — distance from edge of opening to nearest wall
  5. Measure depth — distance from the opening back into the garage

Bring these measurements when you contact us and we'll recommend the correct door and track system for your space.

Alternatively, we offer a free on-site measure in the Pretoria area — just book a visit.
