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

Remember that a large flat door can make a colour look slightly different from the same shade on a narrow window frame.
Check with your local planning authority before changing colour if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
Ask whether the colour you want is in the manufacturer's range, because colours outside it are priced separately on survey.
Look through the paperwork for your windows or front door, because the RAL code is the most reliable way to match the colour.

Rules that apply in Orpington

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 Orpington: questions

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

No. Guide prices are the same for Orpington 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 an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Orpington?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Orpington garage so you can compare.

What do you check at a survey in BR6?

At a survey in BR6 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 do coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors cost in Orpington?

Our guide price for coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors is from £990 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 Orpington as elsewhere we cover.

Will the guide rails and box match the door colour?

It's worth asking at the survey. On most fittings the box sits inside the garage, but the guide rails can be visible from outside, and a face-fitted box is fully on show. Finish options for the guides and box depend on the door model, so tell us what you'd like and the quote will state exactly what's included.

Can I see a colour sample before ordering?

It's sensible to see a physical sample where one is available, because screens and printed charts don't show colours accurately. Ask about samples when you book your survey. If you already have a RAL code from your windows or front door, that code is the most precise way to tell us the colour you want.
