Canopy garage doors are the most common type of door found in this country. Approximately 1/3rd of the door swings out of the garage whilst the door is opening coming to rest in the top of the opening with that 1/3rd of the door outside the garage and the remaining 2/3rds inside. All this is done without the use of any horizontal tracks.
