ProductNews Overhead Door Offers Enhancements to Three Garage Door Lines Overhead Door distributors have new design options to offer customers thanks to enhancements Overhead Door Corporation has made to three of its garage door lines. The Dallas-based company created a V5 stamp that mimics the look and feel of wainscoting, which will be available on the Durafrm Collection®, Traditional Steel and Thermacore® lines. A raised panel Ranch stamp is also now available on the Thermacore® line, while decorative window inserts have been added to the Traditional Steel Collection. Overhead Door's introduction of the V5 and Ranch stamps gives distributors more options to offer consumers who want to customize their homes. In a design nod to wainscoting, the V5 stamp incorporates fve vertical stiles and a faux wood grain aesthetic that is not only attractive, but adds strength to the Thermacore®, Durafrm and Traditional Steel doors on which it's incorporated. Meanwhile, the raised-panel Ranch stamp further expands the design offerings available in the Thermacore® line and will be available with corresponding ranch windows. In an effort to minimize the need for additional inventory, V5 and Ranch stamped doors will utilize current Thermacore®, Durafrm and Traditional Steel Collection window trim inserts. Overhead Door is also adding new decorative window inserts for both the Standard Panel (short) and Ranch Panel (long) doors in the Traditional Steel Collection. Customers will now have the option to pair all 170/180 Series doors with Prairie window trims, while 399 Series doors may be paired with Wynbridge, Stockton 8-Lite Arch and Somerton window trims.
