What should I know about aluminium roller garage doors in Dorset?
- If you want an electric door, look for a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening where the control box will go.
- On a newer estate, read your deeds for any covenant about garage door style or colour before you settle on a finish.
- Check whether the garage floor is level across the opening, as the bottom rail of the curtain needs to sit evenly when the door closes.
- Think about whether the finish should match your windows, front door or fascias, since RAL colours and woodgrain are available as a priced extra.

Rules that apply in England
Planning
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.
Powered door safety
Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
Questions about aluminium roller garage doors in Dorset
Which towns do you cover in Dorset?
We cover Dorset, including Bournemouth, Poole, Weymouth and Christchurch. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Dorset online.
Are guide prices the same across Dorset?
Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Dorset. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.
Can I get a price without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type, or the visit price for a repair. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Can I park right up to an aluminium roller door?
Yes. The curtain rises straight up into the box instead of tilting outwards like an up-and-over door, so you can park close to the opening and still open it fully. That is handy on a short drive, because nothing swings out over the space in front of the garage while the door is moving.
Can a manual aluminium roller door be made electric later?
Sometimes. A manual door can be converted to electric only if its curtain, barrel, box and guide rails are sound and compatible with a motor. If they aren't, we'll tell you at survey and price a new door instead. If you expect to want electric operation within a few years, it's usually simpler to choose it from the start.
