Swedish term
Takskjutportar
Swedish to English
Tech/Engineering
Construction / Civil Engineering
Takskjutportar öppnas lodrätt, vilket ger gott om utrymme framför och bakom porten. Portsektionerna fälls in plant under taket, lodrätt över öppningen eller utmed taket. Hörmann takskjutportar i modellserie 50, av stål, stål-/aluminium eller aluminium imponerar med en enastående sortimentsbredd, toppdesign och certifierad säkerhet. Hos Compact-takskjutportarna staplas lamellerna lodrätt bakom överstycket. Det låga inskjutsdjupet är särskilt fördelaktigt i hallar med ljuskupoler, glastak och glasfasader.

Overhead sectional (garage) doors
If you examine my reference, you will see that in UK, Hörmann sell various types of door, including overhead sectional doors and side sliding sectional doors.
I favour 'overhead sectional doors' here to distinguish those in the question from side sliding sectional doors and up-and-over doors. Hörmann only refer to their doors as garage doors but they and similar doors could be used for other purposes e.g. aircraft hangars, so you could omit 'garage' to make it generic.
