Roll-up doors are doors made of horizontal slats or panels that roll up into a compact coil above the opening. They’re commonly used in commercial settings, garages, and storage units because they save space by not requiring room to swing open. When opened, the slats roll around a drum, making them ideal for areas with limited ceiling space or needing easy accessibility.
Panel doors are doors constructed from multiple panels, which are sections of the door that fit together in a single, solid piece. They are typically hinged and open outward or inward rather than rolling up. Common in residential garages, panel doors offer durability and can come with or without windows. They are ideal for areas with adequate space for the door to swing open and are often chosen for their aesthetic and customizable designs.
