Worth knowing

Worth checking before work starts

A few rules and checks that apply to this kind of work.

  1. Headroom inside

    Roller and sectional doors need space above the opening, inside the garage. Ask the installer to check it before you choose.

  2. Power for an electric door

    An electric door needs a power supply near the opening. Ask whether it is in the quote, or whether you will need an electrician.

  3. Manual release

    Ask how an electric door opens if the power fails, and where its manual release is.

Questions

Garage door questions

My job isn't in the list. What should I choose?

Choose the closest job, then explain what you need in the description step.

What jobs can I request quotes for here?

Garage door fitting, servicing and repair, electric garage doors, industrial doors and garage door supply. The full list is in the form's first step.

Can I request quotes to motorise my garage door?

Yes. Choose Electric Garage Door Installation and say in the description that the door is already fitted.

How much does a new garage door cost?

It depends on the type of door, its size and material, whether it is insulated or electric, and whether the old door and frame need taking out. Ask each installer to quote for the same door, so the quotes compare.

Which type of garage door is best?

It depends on the space. Roller and sectional doors open straight up, so you can park close to them. Up-and-over doors swing out as they open, and side-hinged doors open like a pair of gates.
