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

Think about the inside face of the door if the garage is integral or used as a room, since finishes can differ by side.
Check with your local planning authority before changing colour if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
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.

Rules that apply in Potters Bar

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 Potters Bar: questions

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Potters Bar?

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 Potters Bar garage so you can compare.

What do you check at a survey in EN6?

At a survey in EN6 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 long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Potters Bar?

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.

Can you remove my old garage door in Potters Bar?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Potters Bar address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.

Can I have different colours on the inside and outside of the door?

That depends on what the manufacturer offers for the door you choose, because the finish options for the inside face of the curtain vary from one model to another. Tell us at the survey if the inside colour matters to you, for example on an integral garage you use as a utility space, and we'll confirm it in writing.

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.
