What should I know about coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Beckenham?

Decide whether you want the guide rails and box in the same finish, especially if the box will be face-fitted outside.
Read your deeds for covenants about the front of the house, which some newer estates use to control colours.
Check with your local planning authority before changing colour if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
Compare any colour against your house in daylight, as screens and printed charts rarely show a shade accurately.

Rules that apply in Beckenham

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.

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.

Coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Beckenham: questions

Do you charge more for Beckenham than other towns in Greater London?

No. Guide prices are the same for Beckenham as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Is the survey in Beckenham really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Beckenham?

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 BR3?

At a survey in BR3 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.

Can I paint my existing roller garage door a new colour?

We supply new doors in the finish you choose rather than repainting existing doors. Painting a roller curtain yourself could affect how the laths coil and run in the guides, and may affect the manufacturer's warranty terms. If your door is tired and you want a new colour, a replacement door in your chosen finish is the reliable route.

Does a woodgrain roller door need treating like real timber?

No. A woodgrain finish is a wood effect on aluminium or steel laths, so it doesn't need staining, oiling or varnishing like timber. Clean it as the manufacturer recommends and keep the guide rails free of debris. Manufacturer's warranty terms for the door and its finish are set out in writing in your quote.
