Any garage door size is expressed as the internal frame size. This is usually slightly larger than the actual door panel.

• For example:

If the internal frame to frame width is 7’0” and the floor to underside of frame crossbar is 6’6” – door size you need to order is 7’0” x 6’6”.If you are fitting to a new or existing timber goalpost frame we need to know this internal timber frame size and the size of timber used to make the frame. 70 mm x 70 mm is the popular size for a timber goalpost frame for a garage door. If smaller, not all types of door will fit, so please measure it and let us know.
