What should I know about aluminium roller garage doors in Shirley?
- Measure the space between the top of the opening and the ceiling, because the coiled curtain needs a box that is commonly around 205 to 300 mm deep or more.
- Think about whether the finish should match your windows, front door or fascias, since RAL colours and woodgrain are available as a priced extra.
- Check there is roughly 75 to 100 mm of solid wall on each side of the opening for the aluminium guide rails to fix to.
- 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.

Rules that apply in Shirley
Structural work
Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.
Electrics
An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.
Aluminium roller garage doors in Shirley: questions
Do you cover Shirley?
Yes. Shirley is part of the area we cover in the West Midlands, including B90, B28 and B91. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
How much do aluminium roller garage doors cost in Shirley?
Our guide price for aluminium roller garage doors is from £895 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Shirley as elsewhere we cover.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Shirley?
Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.
What do you check at a survey in B90?
At a survey in B90 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
How much room does an aluminium roller door take up inside the garage?
Very little. The curtain coils onto a barrel in a box at the top of the opening, so there are no ceiling tracks and nothing hangs across the roof space. You lose some height at the top for the box and a narrow strip at each side for the guide rails, both of which we measure at survey.
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.
