A high load retention system for a sectional overhead door enables uninhibited operation of a standard roller track mechanism of a sectional overhead door, while allowing high wind loads to be seamlessly transferred from the track mechanism to a more robust high load jamb retaining element. The system comprises: a plurality of primary door panels, each having a front face; a primary track; engagement elements each having a first end connected to a primary door panel and a second end that rides in the primary track; a high load jamb retaining element positioned adjacent to the primary track and having a clasping portion; and a high load door retaining element connected to a primary door panel and having a clasping portion corresponding to the clasping portion of the high load jamb retaining element.

A panel assembly including a panel that can be positioned in an opening, the panel including a plurality of locking members spaced apart along at least part of a length of and proximate to opposing longitudinal edges of the panel and a guide extending along either side of the opening, each guide including at least one locking flange extending along at least part of a length of the guide, wherein in use the panel is received in the guides so that the locking members selectively engage the flanges to limit lateral movement of the panel edges.
