Over the last 12 months, B&D’s Flush Mount system has become increasingly popular with our clients throughout the Northern Rivers. As a feature of the Designer Door series, the Flush Mount system is unique, innovative and architecturally significant.
What is a Flush Mount system?
The Flush Mount system mounts a garage door to the outside of a building’s exterior in a way so that the door sits flush with the exterior wall. Your regular garage door is set back into the garage space a little, a Flush Mount garage door uses special hinges and fittings, so that it becomes part of the exterior wall it is fixed to. These doors can be clad with the building’s exterior material so that they appear to be part of the wall, or not even there at all. Often, our clients choose the Flush Mount system to achieve this on-trend ‘hidden-garage-door’ look.
The Flush Mount system can only be applied to sectional garage doors. Sectional doors are broken into 4-5 panels that allow the door to bend and follow the curved path when opening and closing. The panels are stored along the ceiling on the garage, and can compromise the height and space of the room. It’s only minor, but it’s something to keep in mind, especially if you have a big car. Unfortunately, the Flush Mount System cannot be applied to a roller door (at this point in time).
Why we love the Flush Mount system
The Flush Mount system is part of B&D’s Designer Door range for a reason. It exudes architectural design, modernism and individuality. Homeowners choose this garage door system for its visual impact and because it seamlessly integrates to the front of a building (commercial or residential), it’s only noticeable when the door actually starts to open.
Curious about the specific benefits of choosing a flush-mount system for your home?
One of our favourite applications is when the garage door is clad in the same material as the building’s exterior wall. As the door starts to close, it disappears before your eyes. It’s unique design and flush façade is hard to beat when it comes to curb-side appeal. If you’re going to make a statement, the Flush Mount system is the way to go.
The aesthetic of the Flush Mount system has wow-factor, however there are functional benefits that worth mentioning. Being a B&D garage door, Flush Mount doors come with all the promises of the brand; quality, reliability, longevity, safety and security. On top of that, the Flush Mount system is effortless and quiet in operation.
Design options
The Flush Mount system is available in many different design and material options. In fact, because it’s a system, there are a very wide range of material, colour and profile designs to choose from. All garage doors in the B&D Designer Door range can be fitted with the Flush Mount system, including Prodema Prodex, the slatted collection and the sheer panel collection.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What is a flush mount garage door?
A flush mount garage door is a garage door that sits completely flush with the exterior wall of your home, rather than being set back into the garage opening. Special hinges and fittings allow the door to become part of the wall itself, creating a seamless, almost invisible look when closed. - How does a garage door sit flush with the exterior wall?
A flush mounted garage door uses a specific hinge and fitting system that allows the door panels to align perfectly with the building’s exterior cladding. The door can even be clad in the same material as the surrounding wall, so it blends in completely and is only noticeable once it starts to open. - What’s the difference between a flush garage door and a regular garage door?
A regular garage door is set back into the garage space, with visible tracks and a recessed appearance. A flush garage door, by contrast, sits level with the exterior wall with no recess, giving it a cleaner, more architectural look. - Can any garage door be converted into a flush mount system?
No the flush mount system can only be applied to sectional garage doors, which open in 4-5 panels along a curved track. It cannot currently be applied to roller doors or roller shutters. - Is a flush mount sectional garage door available in different materials and colours?
Yes. As part of B&D’s Designer Door range, flush mount sectional garage doors are available in a wide range of materials, colours, and profile designs including the Prodema Prodex and slatted collection, so you can match it to your home’s exterior. - Are flush mounted garage doors only for modern homes?
Not necessarily. While flush mount systems are popular for their sleek, modern appearance, they can complement a range of architectural styles, especially when clad in a material that matches the existing facade.
