About the Range
Side hinged timber garage doors in two sizes
Every pair in the range is made by Green & Taylor from responsibly sourced, FSC Mix certified European softwood: 14mm tongue and groove boarding on dowelled stiles, rails and ledges. This traditional joinery method gives a robust construction that stays square and weathertight. These garage doors are available in two sizes, 1981mm x 2135mm (6’6″ x 7’0″) and 2135mm x 2135mm (7’0″ x 7’0″), each in solid or glazed designs. The solid 1981mm pair is £400 and the solid 2135mm pair is £420. The right-hand leaf (viewed from outside) opens first, so you can walk in without swinging both across the driveway.
Glazing options: light, privacy and security
The glazed 1981mm pair (£429) and glazed 2135mm pair (£449) have Flemish obscure glass already fitted. It lets natural light into a workshop or storage garage and hides what is inside. If you keep a car or tools in there, the solid timber garage doors give full privacy for £29 less. Both are 44mm thick with rebated meeting stiles to keep rain out where the leaves meet. Hinges, handles and bolts are not included, so budget for heavy-duty exterior ironmongery.
Frames, finishing and style
Hang your wooden garage doors in the Solid Pine Universal Garage Door Frame (£110): 66mm deep solid pine head and jambs with loose door stops and locating dowels. It needs a 2211mm x 2282mm structural opening for a 2135mm pair. For the 1981mm pair, cut the jambs down and allow 2058mm x 2282mm. The wood arrives untreated, so you can paint it to match your home’s exterior, go dark for contemporary styles, or stain it to show the natural beauty of the grain. A two-person team delivers, usually within 3 to 7 working days.
Wooden Garage Doors FAQs
How much do wooden garage doors cost?
Our side hinged garage doors cost £400 to £449 a pair including VAT, from the solid 1981mm x 2135mm pair up to the glazed 2135mm x 2135mm pair. Add £110 for the universal frame, then hinges, handles, bolts, weatherseals and exterior finish. Fitting is extra, so price the whole job first. Our garage door cost guide compares other types.
What size garage opening do these doors fit?
Measure the structural opening in the brickwork first. With the universal frame, a 2135mm x 2135mm pair needs 2211mm high by 2282mm wide, and a 1981mm x 2135mm pair needs 2058mm by 2282mm. You can trim up to 20mm from the long edges. If your opening is much wider than 2282mm, you need larger doors than these standard door sizes.
Are wooden garage doors a good idea?
Wooden garage doors are a good idea if you will maintain them. Real wood has a natural warmth that steel or aluminium doors lack and a timeless style that suits period properties. The trade-off is upkeep: pine moves with the weather and needs refinishing every few years. If you want a door you never touch, choose another material.
What wood is best for garage doors?
For most homes, pine. It is a softwood that takes paint and wood stain well and costs far less than oak and other hardwoods, which are denser and more durable but priced to match. Every pair here is 44mm solid pine, with no other timber options. Seal every face, recoat when it dulls, and pine stands up to UK weather.
Can I replace an up-and-over door with side hinged doors?
Yes, and it is a common reason to buy side hinged garage doors: with no ceiling tracks or springs, you gain headroom. Remove the old door and frame, check the opening, then fit the universal frame. Our up-and-over removal guide covers the job, and types of garage doors compares sectional doors with each other garage door type.
What else do I need to buy with the doors?
The doors come as a pair only. You also need a frame (the universal frame fits both sizes), hinges, handles, a lock or hasp, bolts, weatherseals and exterior paint, stain or varnish. Each leaf is just over a metre wide, so buy heavy-duty hinges, and order the frame with the doors to check the fit before finishing.
How do I finish and look after pine garage doors?
Like any exterior timber doors, treat wooden garage doors before hanging. For a high quality finish, apply knotting solution over visible knots, then paint, stain or varnish every face and edge, including the bottom, and re-seal any edge you trim. Then wash them yearly, check the hinges and bolts, and recoat when the finish starts to dull or crack.
Are side hinged garage doors secure?
Side hinged garage doors are as secure as the hardware you fit. The 44mm solid pine leaves and rebated meeting stiles give a strong base, but no ironmongery is included. Fit heavy-duty hinges, a lock or padlockable hasp, and top and bottom bolts on the fixed leaf. A weak hinge or hasp is where timber garage doors get forced.
