10x8 roll-up door on a metal building

    10x8 Roll-Up Door

    A wide residential and light commercial size providing generous clearance for trucks, equipment, and workshop access.

    Durable steel construction, multiple color options, and built for long-term performance.

    What Is a 10x8 Roll-Up Door?

    The 10x8 roll-up door provides a 10-foot wide by 8-foot tall opening — a full 2 feet wider than a standard 8-foot garage door. This extra width is ideal for full-size trucks, dual-cab pickups, boats on trailers, and equipment that needs wider clearance.

    The 10-foot width is where residential convenience meets light commercial capability. This size is popular for home workshops, small metal building shops, and agricultural outbuildings where equipment access is a daily requirement.

    TruGlide 10x8 doors feature a minimum .016" steel (27 gauge) curtain, 18 gauge galvanized tracks, and exterior latches on both sides for secure closure. The 10-foot width is the threshold where dual exterior latches become standard.

    Electric Openers & Operators

    Opener and operator details for the 10x8 roll-up door.

    Compatible Opener: EasyRoller 14

    The 10x8 door uses a 9.5-inch drum and is compatible with the EasyRoller 14 electric opener. The EasyRoller 14 is designed for doors 12 feet wide and smaller with 9.5-inch drums.

    Motor Installation

    Electric motors are typically installed on the right-hand side when standing inside the building looking outward. Installing on the opposite side can cause reverse operation and installer issues.

    The side brush seal holder is extruded at a 45-degree angle to keep the door sealed tightly and reduce air intrusion.
