Garage Door Security FAQs
Secured by Design (SBD) is the official police security initiative that promotes products and building standards designed to help reduce crime. Products that achieve Secured by Design accreditation are independently tested to recognised security standards, helping homeowners choose solutions that offer enhanced protection against forced entry.
Research commissioned by police and government bodies has shown that homes built or upgraded to Secured by Design principles can experience significantly lower rates of burglary and attempted break-ins compared with properties that do not follow these standards. While no security product can completely eliminate risk, Secured by Design products are designed to make unauthorised access more difficult and time-consuming.
High-quality roller garage doors can offer excellent security when they are manufactured with robust materials, secure locking systems and anti-lift protection. Unlike some traditional up-and-over garage doors, roller doors have fewer exposed leverage points and roll into a compact housing, helping to reduce potential vulnerabilities. However, security levels vary between products, so it's important to choose a door that has been independently tested to recognised standards.
Garolla's Titan roller garage doors are designed with security as a priority. They feature a reinforced aluminium curtain, anti-lift technology and a secure motorised operating system to help resist forced entry attempts. Titan doors have also achieved Secured by Design accreditation, demonstrating that they have been independently tested against recognised security standards. Combined with professional installation, these features help provide homeowners with confidence that their garage is well protected.
