What should I know about double and wide roller garage doors in Orpington?

Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.
Look along the lintel for cracks or sagging, because a wide door's box is fixed along its full length.
Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.
Think about electric operation for any opening over 4 m, since the wide doubles in our price list are all electric.

Rules that apply in Orpington

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.

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.

Double and wide roller garage doors in Orpington: questions

Can you remove my old garage door in Orpington?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Orpington 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.

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.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Orpington?

Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Orpington. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

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.

Can I convert a double up-and-over door to a roller door?

Yes. We remove the old door and its frame, or keep the frame if it's sound, then check the lintel and reveals. The box is fitted behind the lintel and the guides to the reveals. Any extra work, such as a new lintel or building out the reveals, is priced on survey and listed separately in your written quote.

Will a roller door give me more width than my double up-and-over door?

Possibly a little. An up-and-over door has a frame and swing-out arms at the sides, and a roller door doesn't, so converting can improve the clear width slightly. The guide rails still need some side room at each end. We measure the clear width you'd get at survey, so you know before ordering.
