8x7 Roll-Up Door
A standard single-car garage size offering reliable vehicle access for sedans, small SUVs, and compact trucks.
Durable steel construction, multiple color options, and built for long-term performance.
What Is a 8x7 Roll-Up Door?
The 8x7 roll-up door provides an 8-foot wide by 7-foot tall opening — the entry-level standard for single-car residential garages. This size accommodates most sedans, small SUVs, and compact trucks while keeping the door footprint manageable.
The 7-foot height is sufficient for standard passenger vehicles but may be tight for taller trucks and SUVs. If you need additional clearance for taller vehicles, consider the 8x8 or 9x8 sizes.
TruGlide 8x7 doors feature a minimum .016" steel (27 gauge) curtain, 18 gauge galvanized tracks, and a torsion spring system designed for smooth, quiet residential operation.

Motor Installation

A chain hoist operator can be added to smaller doors upon request. Adding a chain hoist removes exterior latches and changes the door to internal kick latches.
