Bruce,
And they are scarce in the USA as well. However, we're talking about Australia and here's a link to the number one suppler of Roller
Doors.
Here you go! http://www.bnd.com.au/about-us/about-bnd
If you really don't believe me feel free to go to Google maps and look at some street views that the Google camera car takes.
Regards,
Rob

Rob,
Really? 99% of homes in Australia use that type of garage door? it has a very back-street industrial look. I see very few around
here, off the top of my head mostly in unheated industrial warehouse compounds.
This stacking door has some pretty nice designs and available R-10.6 insulation.

We put in R-16 overhead doors in Murray's new home. I just shot the temperatures with an IR gun:
Outside on OVH door -7.6C
Inside on OVH door 10.9C
floor surface 13C
Outside wall (inside) 12.2C
Air temp (thermostat on outside wall) 12.5C

I'm assuming Harry is talking about a hoist for cars only.

I have the steel roll up doors in my shop. They work great but do have a commercial look. From an overhead track standpoint, it's a lot less overhead intrusion than a standard garage door and even this folder. Mine all roll up into about 18x18" above the door.
Prior to these, I had rolling barn doors.

Yes, I meant a car hoist.
'37 Ford
'51 Ford Victoria
'87 El Camino
'80 El Camino
All in various stages of disrepair.
The 26' GMC is in there too.
I have one hoist, 7,000 lbs that goes high enough to work under a car. Plus I park a car under when I'm not working.
