8x8 Roll-Up Door
A popular single-car garage size with an extra foot of height for improved vehicle clearance and easier access.
Durable steel construction, multiple color options, and built for long-term performance.
What Is a 8x8 Roll-Up Door?
The 8x8 roll-up door provides an 8-foot wide by 8-foot tall opening — the same width as a standard single-car garage but with an additional foot of height for better clearance. This extra headroom makes a noticeable difference when parking SUVs, trucks with roof racks, or taller vehicles.
This is one of our most popular residential sizes for homeowners who want a roll-up door that accommodates modern vehicles without the complexity and cost of a wider door. The square 8x8 format also works well for workshop access.
Built with a minimum .016" steel (27 gauge) curtain and 18 gauge galvanized steel tracks, TruGlide 8x8 doors deliver smooth, quiet operation ideal for attached and detached residential garages.
