Rundum Meir manufactures the original round the corner side sliding garage door and a UK supplier of garage doors for prestigious new build properties.
We also specialise in making garage doors for restoration, conservation and refurbishment projects given our ability to meet individual designs or replicate existing doors to satisfy planning requirements and the criteria in conservation areas.
Rundum Meir garage doors are manufactured to the highest quality standards from quality treated timber including oak, cedar and larch, along with high strength extruded aluminium and insulated steel. Our sliding doors operate smoothly and quietly, with a host of additional advantages and features.
Our range includes:
The Rundum Original is, as the name suggests, the original ‘round the corner’ sliding garage door. These doors are suitable for listed buildings, luxury new build, conceptual architecture and replacement projects. This door combines the function of an automatic remote controlled garage door with an integral pedestrian door, with the capability to curve in a convex or concave fashion as well as in an S-shape.
The versatility of the Rundum Original sliding garage door is demonstrated in the wide variety of projects on which we’ve been commissioned. These include aircraft hangars, curved buildings, out houses, coach houses, commercial buildings and many applications where an oversized or underground multi-user garage door was required.
These garage doors are often specified on grade II listed or ultra-modern contemporary buildings. The panels are made with a subframe, externally boarded and come complete with tracks, gearing and other accessories. The nature of sectional garage doors makes them ideal for incorporating windows and ventilation louvres into the panels to give the garage additional aesthetic appeal or purpose.
Sectional garage doors can be manufactured in timber and aluminium as standard, but they can be over clad in numerous materials to meet aesthetic goals. Corten steel, bronze, copper and façade panels are just some of the finishes that a Rundum Meir side sectional garage door can offer.
Ceiling mounted sectional doors open vertically upwards and along the ceiling. As with our side sectional garage doors, overhead sectional doors offer vast creative potential in terms of the materials used in their manufacture to meet the desired aesthetic goal. For safety, a finger safety guards are incorporated between the panels and a wide range of individual panel patterns and designs are available.
Special Projects & Bespoke Doors:
- Glass Garage Doors
Rundum Mier specialise in bespoke glass doors to match facades for either underground or multi user properties.
- Bespoke Garage Doors
Our bespoke wooden and metal garage doors have numerous options for personalisation and adaptation and are therefore perfectly suited to even the most complex designs. Simply supply Rundum your designs and we will make your design a reality.
Rundum Mier garage doors come with our MZ4 door mounted operator and modern 4-channel remote control handsets, which can be programmed to achieve a pedestrian door within the door. Rundum Meir operators have been specifically designed to provide outstanding operation, convenience and safety. Thay have been developed in accordance with the latest Euro standards 13241-1, 12453 and 12445 relating to dynamic and static forces at the leading edges and sides.
Materials:
Rundum Meir takes great care to select superior materials for the manufacture of garage doors. Quality materials such as timber, copper, aluminium, steel and glass can all be used. Our solid timber range includes spruce, sapele, hemlock, cedar, larch, European oak and iroko, and other timbers may be available on request. Timber finishes can include a range of products such as stains, paints or oils from a variety of manufacturers and we purchase tree trunks specifically for our customers to ensure consistency in the appearance of the woodgrain. Our metal doors can be powder-coated to any RAL or BS colour or clad in a number of different materials..

Rundum Meir ~ Curved Side Sliding Garage Doors for Manchester Townhouses
Dare to Design Something Different!
Innovative Curved Side Sliding Garage Doors for Manchester Townhouses
Client: Private client
Location: Manchester, UK
Product Supplied: 8 x Bespoke Side Sliding Garage Doors
Architectural Partner: Snook Architects, Liverpool
Sector: Residential – New Build Townhouses
Project Summary
Rundum Meir was selected by Snook Architects to supply a highly tailored garage door solution for a new-build development of eight townhouses in central Manchester. The brief required a product that offered not only space efficiency but also enhanced the architectural vision — delivering both form and function in a tight urban setting.
Challenge
Situated on a narrow residential street, the development needed garage doors that would not obstruct the limited street frontage or compromise internal garage space. Traditional door types such as sectional or up-and-over models were not viable due to space constraints and the curved architectural lines of the buildings.
Snook Architects required a solution that could:
Integrate seamlessly with the curved façade
Maximise internal garage usability
Enable angled vehicle access
Match their design-led vision with a high-end finish
Rundum Meir Solution
Rundum Meir worked closely with the architectural team to specify and deliver eight automated side sliding garage doors, each custom manufactured to follow the unique curvature of the building design.
Key features of the Rundum Meir solution include:
Side Sliding Mechanism: Doors open along one internal wall, occupying just 80mm of space.
Space Efficiency: More room is freed up on the opposite side, aiding vehicle access and reversing.
Curved Customisation: Doors are precision-engineered to match the building’s curve.
Durability & Finish: Made from heavy-duty extruded aluminium, finished in a bespoke powder-coated analok colour selected by the architect.
Automation: Seamless and secure operation at the touch of a button.
Results
The finished installation exceeded expectations, both functionally and aesthetically. Homeowners benefit from improved ease of use and maximise garage space, while the architecture remains clean and cohesive. Rundum Meir’s ability to deliver a completely bespoke, curved, and automated solution played a central role in achieving the architect’s design ambitions.
