Roll-Up Doors for Toronto Laneway Homes
A garage door designed for tight laneways. No swing-out, no ceiling tracks — just smooth vertical operation in the narrowest openings.
Why Toronto's Laneway Homes Need a Different Kind of Door
Toronto's laneways are typically 12 to 16 feet wide. Swing-out garage doors and sectional doors with overhead arms can extend into the laneway as they open, which is why many laneway owners choose a roll-up door instead.
Roll-up doors travel straight up in side guides and coil into a compact housing above the opening. Zero swing-out. Zero lane obstruction. The door can be fully opened as a vehicle approaches through the laneway, without requiring any clearance in front of the building.
Laneway home garages are also often built on older structures with non-standard opening dimensions and irregular masonry. Every door is custom-made to your exact opening and mounted directly to your existing structure, and we have experience fitting doors to brick, stone, wood, and concrete openings across Toronto's older neighbourhoods — the Annex, Leslieville, Cabbagetown, Little Portugal, and beyond.
Why Roll-Up for Laneways?
Zero Swing-Out
The door rolls straight up into its housing. No panel swings into the laneway, no overhead arm extends into the lane.
Made-to-Measure Fit
Laneway openings are rarely standard sizes. Every door is custom-fabricated to your exact opening for a precise fit.
Compact Housing
The roll-up housing is significantly smaller than sectional door hardware. Preserves ceiling height and depth in tight single-car garages.
Motorized Remote Control
Open from your car as you approach through the laneway. No need to exit the vehicle in rain, snow, or at night.
Corrosion-Resistant Aluminum
Extruded aluminum slats with a powder-coated finish — no steel panels to rust or wood to repaint.
Security
Interlocking aluminum slats lock into reinforced side guides.
Recommended Profiles for Laneway Doors
Laneway garage doors are garage-width openings and need profiles sized for that span. We'll confirm the right fit at your free onsite measurement.
The standard recommendation for most Toronto laneway garage doors. Sized for single-car garage widths, with a compact housing that fits tight laneway structures.
For wider laneway openings or double-door laneway garages requiring maximum span capability and structural rigidity.
