Hörmann garage doors

Hörmann is a German manufacturer with a large UK sectional and roller garage door presence, sold through independent installers rather than direct. Since Hörmann sells at the premium end, a specified insulated sectional door installed in the UK typically costs £2,495–£3,500 inc. VAT against the standard 2290mm × 2250mm opening, similar to other premium sectional brands.

Where Hörmann sits in the UK market

Hörmann is one of the biggest garage door makers supplying UK installers, alongside brands like Garador and Teckentrup. It’s best known here for insulated sectional doors, which open vertically and slide flush against the garage ceiling. Hörmann also makes roller doors that coil into a box above the opening.

Hörmann doors aren’t sold direct to UK homeowners. Independent installers fit, warranty and service every door instead. This is because Hörmann relies on local installer networks rather than running a UK retail arm. Most buyers get quotes from two or three installers before choosing one.

Sectional panel thickness: 42mm vs 67mm

Hörmann’s home sectional range comes in two panel thicknesses in the UK: 42mm and 67mm. The thicker 67mm panel gives better heat insulation. This matters most for an integral or attached garage used as living space. However, it matters less for a detached garage used only for storage or parking.

Operator and automation

Hörmann also makes its own garage door operators. Installers commonly fit these as a matched pair with the door, for example alongside an LPU42 or LPU67 sectional. Any UK power-operated garage door must meet BS EN 12453 for force limits and safe reversal. The installer should also provide the log book required by BS EN 12635, which records service history for future buyers or engineers.
