Hello everyone,
I wasn’t sure where to post my question, so apologies if this is not the right place.

We are currently completing our garage, which includes installing a garage door.
Regarding the door, we want to choose one from the company Hörmann. Why? Because we’ve had good experiences with them.

Our house is designed in a modern classic style with anthracite-colored windows and front door. The facade of both the house and the garage is white. Until now, we assumed the door would be white as well, but what about a different color? My wife wants to add some wooden elements in front of the house in the future, so we thought about choosing the door in the color “Golden Oak.”

My question is: Does anyone have reference pictures of their house with a garage door in a different color, or anthracite, that they could share here?

With that said, I’m looking for inspiration.

Ask the manufacturer’s hotline
They are not responsible for that.
That’s nonsense.
I called the manufacturer, and they couldn’t answer my question.

Request a quote from an installation company,
providing your sketch.
They will tell you what is possible:
which gate, width and height, and the motor type, as well as whether it is for a Polo or a VW bus.

What exactly does your drawing show: the entire wall from the inside or outside, nominal dimensions or actual dimensions, is the wall opening without a stop?

Usually, catalogs include various versions (for installation inside or behind the opening, with or without jamb stops, for garages with or without a screed, etc.) each illustrated with basic diagrams showing the tolerances of the commonly labeled dimensions A, B, C, and so on (including surrounding elements such as the wall stops). There are standard/order sizes derived from the typical construction dimensions, and the catalogs explain which version fits when—after all, the goal is usually to use standard sizes, even if the existing building was still constructed using old imperial measurements or something similar.

We had a similar issue,
garage lintel/beam too low for a door with standard dimensions.

Try searching Google for Hörmann Z-, L-, and N-brackets.
There are several detailed drawings available that might help you decide.

We designed our house using three colors. White walls, anthracite aluminum cladding panels, and aluminum-gray roller shutters (aluminum slats). The garage door is also aluminum gray. So far, it has been well received in the neighborhood and is unique in the area.

Hello, take a look at Hörmann’s Duragrain surface options. There are many choices. Just keep in mind that it’s a Dura Decor printed surface.
