Our client required a covered space at the side of his home. He decided to have a combination of a Solar Garage Door and Carport installed at his home in Orpington, Kent.

SBI surveyed, supplied, and installed the carport and then added the solar garage door to secure the front of the carport.

Our range of solar garage doors and shutters is 100% solar and 100% independent from the grid.

They work night or day due to the energy created in the daylight being stored in a battery.

7-Year warranty as standard on the motor!

Whisper-quiet motor with remote control hand sender.

Choice of colours white, pearl white RAL 1013, anthracite RAL 7016, sepia brown RAL 8014, golden oak, metallic aluminium, light grey RAL 7035, and sandblasted black (AKZO Nobel).

0 Watt: autonomous up to 30 days without sun

Developed with scientific partners (INES, CEA), the solar collector and the battery of the shutter have been designed to guarantee you an exceptional operating range: by temperature between -15 ° C and + 60 ° C, even on the north facade and for large shutters.

7-year warranty

This is the only solar shutter with a 7-year warranty, including on the battery and on the sensor. The battery life, increased by an optimised charging technique, is aligned with that of the shutter.

Our client had no electric running to his enbloc garage so the solar powered garage door provided the perfect solution.

No power no problem!
