What should I know about insulated roller garage doors in Kendal?

Check whether the garage has other weak spots, such as a single-glazed window or a gappy side door, that will still let heat out after the new door goes in.
Check whether the floor dips or rises across the opening, because an uneven floor can leave a gap under the bottom rail that lets draughts in.
Wider openings usually suit 77 mm laths for rigidity, so expect the lath size to be confirmed once the width has been measured at survey.
Look for a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening, as every insulated door in our price list is electric.

Rules that apply in Kendal

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.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.

Insulated roller garage doors in Kendal: questions

What do you check at a survey in LA9?

At a survey in LA9 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.

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

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 Kendal garage so you can compare.

Can I get a price for Kendal 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.

Do you charge more for Kendal than other towns in Cumbria?

No. Guide prices are the same for Kendal as for anywhere else we cover in Cumbria. 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 insulation be added to my existing roller door?

Not in a practical way. The foam sits between the two aluminium skins of each lath when it's made, so a single-skin curtain can't simply be filled or lined. Getting insulated laths means a new curtain, and because the box and barrel need to suit the larger roll, that normally means a new door, which we can quote as a replacement.

Will an insulated door fit the same opening as my old single-skin door?

Usually, yes, but insulated laths are thicker, so the curtain makes a bigger roll in the box. If your old door had a small box, the new one may need more headroom, a box fitted under the lintel, or a face-fitted box. We check this at survey and explain the trade-offs before you choose.
