Disclosed is a sectional door adapted to withstand high wind load and impact from flying debris. The door includes a glazing bead to secure glazing panels into frames formed by the rails and stiles of the door. The bead is connected with the frame by engagement between extensions on the bead and respective lips along the edges of the frame. The bead is pressed against the frame, causing the extension to elastically flex to allow the extensions to fit between the lips. The extensions are received in gaps formed by the lips to secure the bead in place on the frame. Force on the door cause by high winds is communicated from the glazing panel through the bead and to the frame. The door also includes reinforcements arranged along the rails to communicate forces, such as high wind load forces, from the frame to the edges of the doorway surrounding the door. The reinforcements include endcaps that increase stiffness of the rails to prevent the rails from buckling during severe weather events.

A system is disclosed for converting an overhead door into a gate or serving window, the system having at least two rows of panels spanning the width of the door, one panel located above and adjacent to the other panel, a pair of rails opposite one another and adjacent to the panels, the panels traveling within the rails to move from a closed position to an open position, and at least one hinge connecting the lower row of panels to the upper row of panels, the hinge having an upper half attached to the upper row of panels and a lower half attached to the lower row of panels, the upper and lower halves of the hinge connected by a removable central pin, wherein the upper row of panels moves from the closed position to the open position when the central pin is removed from the hinge.

The present invention is a lift gate protector that is placed on a garage door to protect a lift gate of a vehicle. The gate protector is made of an impact material such as foam and is attached to a garage door to protect a lift gate from being damaged when opened. It is positioned at the location on the garage door that the provides the maximum protection for a vehicle's lift gate.

Described is a garage door panel rail reinforcement device that is configured and constructed to be installed on an upper or lower rail of a “tongue and groove”-type garage door panel. Also, a garage door panel rail reinforcement device that is configured and constructed to be installed on an upper or lower rail of a “ship lap”-style garage door panel is described. Further, an adjustable garage door panel rail reinforcement device is described. In general, some implementations can be configured to fit other profiles of components forming a garage door rail disposed at a meeting point of two adjacent garage door panels.

The invention relates to a roller door comprising a door leaf which is movable between an open position, in which it uncovers a wall opening at least partially and preferably forms a multi-layer coil at least partially above the wall opening, and a closed position, in which it closes the wall opening at least partially, said door leaf having a plurality of door leaf segments arranged one behind the other in the direction of movement of the door leaf. At least one stabilizing device extending perpendicular to the direction of movement of the door leaf is arranged between two door leaf segments, and the mutually facing edge regions of the door leaf segments are held on the stabilizing device, at least one edge region of at least one segment being held in a floating manner on the stabilizing device in such a way that a relative movement of this edge region with respect to the stabilizing device is possible at least in the direction of movement of the door leaf.

An adapter bracket for attaching a vertical garage door brace to a garage door has a base plate with an upper tab and a lower tab. A left and right side wing stick out from the sides of the base plate. The side wings bend forward to form left and right forward tabs. The tabs each have a 0.38 inch diameter hole in them to receive a standard size mounting bolt. The bolt is the same size bolt used to attach the garage door brace to hollow door hinges. If the hinges are not hollow, then the hinges are removed when a strong wind is anticipated. The adapter brackets then replace the hinges so that the standard bolt can be used to attach the brace to the door.
