Hormann Berry Door

An Innovative Company 

In the 1950s, Hörmann produced a new type of garage door on an industrial scale: the up and over garage door, or the so called “Berry door”. Since then Hörmann have been continuously developing innovative products that deal with specific needs for business and home use. Inventing new types of doors for factories and warehouses that increase safety and speed, they are the market leader for the production industries. Hörmann hold a number of patents for their innovative design and engineering practices that lead to unbeatable products. 

A Greener Future

Many of Hörmann’s products have a great focus not only on function, but impact on the environment too. For instance, many of their entrance doors and garage doors are incredibly insulated, improving your home’s energy efficiency. The insulation is made using environmentally-friendly procedures for foaming. Hörmann’s commitment to a greener future can be seen in all aspects of their production, such as using renewable energies to power factories, CO2 neutral printing and post and recycling of its packaging used to transport products.
