Upgrade your home’s kerb appeal and add character to your garage space with beautiful, low-maintenance wood effect GRP garage doors made from durable GRP. Our doors capture the look and feel of natural wood with the unparalleled durability and longevity of glass reinforced plastic.
What is GRP?
GRP stands for glass-reinforced plastic. It’s a high-tech composite material made by infusing fine strands of glass within a tough plastic resin. The glass boosts the impact resistance, while the resin provides colour, sheen and weatherproofing.
Realistic Wood Finishes
Our wood look garage doors are crafted to capture the elegance and beauty of natural wood types like oak, cherry, cedar and mahogany. High-definition plank detailing and textured woodgrain patterns replicate the look found in real wood for a finish that looks authentic and natural. Special finishes add realistic weathering effects, natural colour variations, wood knots and grains. You’ll enjoy the visual warmth and character of real wood doors combined with the unmatched durability of GRP composite materials.
RAL Colour Garage Doors
There are plenty of colours to choose from too, to suit your personal taste or to match the style of your property. We can match your timber effect garage door to any RAL or BS (British Standard) colour of your choice.
Benefits of Wood Effect GRP Garage Doors
While wooden doors are aesthetically pleasing, GRP does offer several advantages over natural wood. It won’t warp, crack or rot from exposure to moisture and temperature fluctuations like real wood can if it’s not well cared for.
Easy to maintain: The colour and wood grain patterns are infused throughout the thickness of the GRP material, which allows these doors to maintain their original appearance despite years of use and exposure to the elements.

- Lightweight but durable: GRP is lightweight and easy to open and close yet has incredible impact resistance and durability. So, with the elegant look and feel of real wood, GRP provides essentially maintenance-free garage doors that will last for many years to come.
- Environmentally friendly: The glass-reinforced plastic contains gentle compounds derived from naturally occurring materials, and often incorporates recycled fillers and fibres too. With no toxic chemicals or harmful by-products, GRP is an eco-conscious composite building material. Our manufacturing process aims to minimise waste and energy consumption as well.
- Heightened security: GRP has an unmatched strength-to-weight ratio compared to natural wood. The rigid, impact-resistant GRP doors will stand up to attempts at forced entry or vandalism, protecting your garage contents from theft.

Choose the Perfect Style for Your Home
GRP wood effect garage doors come in a variety of styles to match your home’s architecture and meet your functional needs. Our top-quality fibreglass doors are available in a range of popular styles.
- Up and Over – The traditional up and over design provides a safe, space-saving solution for garage access. GRP versions come in ribbed and panelled looks with retractable or canopy opening.
- Sectional – Made of separate panels that open vertically, sectional GRP doors maximise driveway space with a near flush-to-wall opening. They offer excellent insulation and weatherproofing.
- Roller – With a space-saving roll-up design, GRP roller doors store compactly inside the garage when open. A roller door is discreet and secure with no visible hardware.
- Side Hinged – Hinged GRP doors swing out like standard exterior doors. They provide full driveway access when open and are available in single or double door configurations to suit your home.
In addition to the style, you can choose from a wide range of colours, wood grain finishes and windows. Automated opener systems can also be added to any style for convenience and security.
Countless Options for Customisation
Choose from our stock colour collection or use any RAL colour code to match your home’s exterior palette. Window designs, frame colours and hardware finishes can also be customised to your desired look for a garage door that perfectly matches your home. Our doors are available in a range of standard and custom sizes to fit your garage opening too.
