What should I know about insulated roller garage doors in Ashton-in-Makerfield?

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.
Measure the headroom above the opening carefully, because insulated laths make a bigger roll than single-skin and need a deeper box.
Look for a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening, as every insulated door in our price list is electric.

Powered door safety

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.

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 Ashton-in-Makerfield: questions

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ashton-in-Makerfield?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Is the survey in Ashton-in-Makerfield really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

What do you check at a survey in WN4?

At a survey in WN4 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 Ashton-in-Makerfield?

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 Ashton-in-Makerfield. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

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.

Are insulated roller doors available in different colours?

Yes. Insulated doors come in the manufacturer's standard range finishes, and you can choose a RAL colour or a woodgrain effect as a priced extra. Colours outside the manufacturer's range are priced on survey. If you're matching windows or a front door, have the RAL code to hand when you ask for a guide price.
