FLUSH FIT GARAGE DOORS

Flush fit garage doors are designed to align seamlessly with the external cladding or façade of a building, creating a clean, minimal look. Instead of the door sitting recessed within the opening, the front of the door finishes flush with the outside wall for a more integrated appearance.

This style is commonly used in architectural builds where consistency in materials, lines, and finishes is a priority. We offer custom flush-fit solutions that are functional, reliable, and suited to a wide range of materials and home designs.

Design & Installation

Flush fit garage doors require additional design and planning compared to standard doors. To achieve a true flush finish, the system needs to be designed with the surrounding structure in mind.

  • Subframe Installation: A steel or aluminium frame is installed into the garage opening to provide structural support and allow the cladding to sit level with the façade.

  • Custom Cladding: Doors can be supplied with or without external cladding. This allows builders to match the garage door with the home’s materials, such as timber battens, composite panels, or Colorbond®.

  • Weight Considerations: While flush fit doors can support heavier materials, the weight will affect spring tension, motor size, and overall performance. Each door is assessed individually to ensure safe and smooth operation.

  • Precision Fit: Alignment is critical. IRDS works closely with builders and architects to make sure measurements and fit are accurate during installation.

Is a Flush Fit Door Right for You?


Flush fit doors are ideal for:

  • New builds or major renovations with custom façades

  • Projects where the garage door is part of the visual front of the home

  • Clients seeking a clean, architectural look without visible tracks or recessed sections

They are less suited to retrofit applications unless significant changes are made to the building’s structure.
