Are there standard sizes?
No all roller garage doors are made bespoke depending on measurements of your garage. This means most companies will require a site survey to complete accurate measurements from which door will be manufactured.
What happens if I book a survey?
A site survey generally consists of an engineer taking measurements and completing a demonstration of the product using samples and models. This is also your opportunity to ask any questions you may have. Based on the measurement the engineer will normally be able to give a price on site and take an order.
Where is the motor mounted?
Most electric roller garage doors have motor mounted within the roller shaft at the top of the garage door keeping all moving parts safely concealed.
What’s the life span of a sectional garage door?
This is a difficult question as it will depend on how it is used and the environment that it is fitted. From our experience there are many automatic garage doors that continue to give excellent service after 15 years.
Will it have a remote control unit?
Most electric garage doors come with a remote control unit and many manufacturers add this as standard. The majority of companies will also offer a manual back up system depending on the design. From our experience most remote control units offer excellent range in excess of 50 feet.
What electricity supply do they require?
Most doors will run off a standard electricity supply and have a 13a plug. If you require electricity to be fed to your garage the company will generally quote you for this work to be completed at the time of installation.

Normal installation takes around half a day.
