Anyone have any products they would recommend for a roughly 11x10 opening? Alternate options? |

Overhead Door Corp. has a commercial insulated sectional door, No. 470, that has a flush panel appearance (though with fake wood grain; necessary to prevent oil-canning); limited color selection

They also have residential garage doors with fake raised panels, though not insulated; I suppose there are people who find these visually appealing. |

Brian,
Please define "visually appealing".

Brian,
See https://www.rytecdoors.com/high-performance-doors/fabric-doors/fast-seal.
There's one on the Federal Office Building in Seattle, this one has stainless steel finish. Very fast operation.
Probably twice the cost of Overhead Door's top of the line, but it's pretty and fast. |

I agree, visually appealing is not a very helpful term. I am working on a tennis center and the client wants a 10x10 min opening and asked for a "garage door". The client is probably intending for a standard loading dock door. While some of them are decent looking on the exterior, the interior is not ideal. Tennis balls will be flying, so durability is a concern, as is thermal. |
