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

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.
Look for a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening, as every insulated door in our price list is electric.
Think about how the garage will be used in future, since choosing insulated laths now avoids replacing the door if it becomes a hobby or utility space.
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.

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.

Insulated roller garage doors in Orpington: questions

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

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 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.

Do you cover Orpington?

Yes. Orpington is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including BR6, BR5 and BR7. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

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.

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.
