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

Make sure there's a clear route from the road to the garage, because a curtain for a wide opening is long and awkward to carry.
Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.
Allow extra headroom for a wide door, since larger laths make a bigger roll and need a deeper box.
Decide whether one wide door or two single doors suits how you use the garage, especially if there is a central pier.

Rules that apply in Lowestoft

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 Lowestoft: questions

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

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 Lowestoft garage so you can compare.

Can you remove my old garage door in Lowestoft?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Lowestoft 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 get a price for Lowestoft without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

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

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.

Is a manual roller door practical on a double garage?

It can be, but only up to 4 m in our price list, and you'll be lifting a long curtain by hand each time, even with spring assistance. For a garage opened every day, or anyone who would find that hard work, an electric door is usually the better choice. Wide doubles between 4 and 5.5 m in our price list are electric.

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.
