CASE STUDY

renlita Westchester County, NY Private Residence

Custom Opening Solution Hides in Plain Sight

Perched atop the edge of a former quarry, this private residence, located in Westchester County’s Bedford community boasts beautiful views.

Steven Harris Architects, LLP specified the Renlita S-1000 counterweight balanced foldaway door for the home’s expansive garage. The stealth custom opening solution hides in plain sight, until it’s opened up. The Renlita S-1000 was supplied with a ¾” marine grade plywood façade in preparation for field application of custom wood cladding by the general contractor, Berkshire Wilton Partners of Darien, CT. The unit was designed and installed to ensure perfect alignment with the home’s adjacent cladding.

With the powerful and innovative REDD® (Renlita Electric Direct Drive) motor, perfect calibration and alignment of the door to the 1/16” is achieved.

The most challenging aspect of this project was designing and engineering the door with the proper setbacks, so when the cladding was installed on the face of the door, everything was in alignment. Visually, the result is a series of neat, evenly spaced linear lines across the face of the garage door which line up perfectly with the home’s cladding on either side of the opening.

The Renlita S-1000 foldaway door opens smoothly and quietly. Precise mathematical calculations achieve optimal balance for safety, performance and appearance. When fully open, the door rests perfectly horizontal under the header, creating an awning effect.
