My door has a built-in wicket door: how do I identify its specific parts?

A wicket door (a small pedestrian door built into the garage door) is a mechanism in its own right, with its own specific parts. The parts differ depending on the make, model and size of the wicket door.

What to note down

The make of your door (Novoferm, Normstahl, Hörmann, Tubauto…)

Parts specific to the wicket door

• Wicket door hinges, different from standard panel hinges.
• Wicket door handle and lock.
• Control rods and cables.
• The position on the wicket door (centre or intermediate)
• The model and year of the door.
• Sectional or up-and-over door
• The orientation (opening right or left) "add image in column E"
• The number of locking points (1 or 3)

The right approach

Tell us which part on the wicket door is affected, the make, and send photos of the door: we'll find the right reference for you.
Always specify the make, model and year of your door: on a wicket door, parts are never interchangeable between makes, unlike some generic parts.
