Seamless front facade inspiration
We know the Batten Garage doors has been a growing and growing trend over the years, and the idea of a creating a seamless, continued front façade is only enhancing this trend. Using DecoBatten® or DecoClad® across a front door turns the door into an extension of the façade rather than a separate element.
DecoBatten® is a lightweight aluminium batten system finished in DecoWood® Super Durable™ timber-look coatings, giving timber aesthetics without timber maintenance.
DecoClad® offers timber-look aluminium cladding in multiple profiles for horizontal or vertical installation, ideal for wrapping a door in the same material as the façade. Both systems are designed for durability and ease of installation, making them practical choices for a front door that needs to perform as well as it looks.

DecoBatten® conceals the garage door and the front door to create a unified, sculptural frontage that appears to be one continuous surface. The second-story screening helps combine the curves and edges, while maintaining that same aesthetic.

Although this front door is not joining the garage, this design continues the same DecoBatten® façade with the large window sitting in the centre.
