There are a lot of options for you to choose from when picking out a garage door for your home as you can see in an earlier post, but for a bit more detail on up and over garage doors, such as their advantages and disadvantages, then you should keep on reading.

As said before, up and over garage doors can work through a variety of mechanisms, some of which allow for greater functionality than others. The canopy up and over door is great, although it will typically be more expensive than a standard, or even a retractable model, so if price is a concern, it’s worth avoiding this. Also, they are more likely to break down due to the more flimsy mechanism managing the tension. A great advantage of a standard up and over garage door is that they are very sturdy, and unlikely to break down. This fact makes them one of the most economical garage door options.
