Western Red Cedar  - Garage Doors   The application of Western Red Cedar as a garage door facing provides designers with the opportunity to truly integrate all aspects of their design. Doors cease to be mundane necessities for closing off car parking areas and suddenly become significant elements in the overall building, allowing a flow on, or reflection of, segments of the design used elsewhere.           Being one of the lightest weight of all timbers commercially available for building products, Western Red Cedar is the ideal choice when garage doors need to be part of the design rather than just being part of the building. Products Products from the TIMBECK range which are suitable for use as Garage Door facings can be found in the “Shiplap & Vee-Joint Cladding” and “Dressed & Sawn Boards” sections of our web site.                   light weight Western Red Cedar is the perfect material for facing Garage Doors  Fixings As for our other external products, we recommend only non-ferrous screws for external use where exposed to the weather. For Garage Door facings, those fixings would be most appropriate in stainless steel.   Where the WRC facing is fixed through the back face of the board and the fixings are NOT exposed to the weather, all screw fixings are suitable   Finishing & Maintenance Requirements for finishing and maintenance of Western Red Cedar facings on Garage Doors are similar to the requirements for other external applications.   Please refer to our “Cladding Products” section for further information.   TIMBECK does not manufacture or install finished Garage Doors   we make the WRC facing and cladding sections widely used by businesses specialising in the manufacture of these items.
