The design possibilities are endless with the Rundum Original, blending into any space and shape, from a traditional garage door opening to a wrap-around door on a circular garage. Unusual elevations, including convex and concave curves and arches, are easily accommodated. Because of our unique side sliding design, minimal side and head room is required, and Rundum Original Round-the-Corner doors can accommodate obstacles such as pipes and columns. Rundum uses only premium construction materials for our bespoke garage doors. Original Wood doors start with the finest woods harvested from around the globe. We offer a wide spectrum of quality wood options that can be incorporated to give further distinction to your door design. Original Aluminum doors can be designed with insulated panels in a variety of finishes, including a wide selection of RAL colors and a number of unique faux wood options.
