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

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.
If the garage is integral, consider how much cold air and noise currently reaches the rooms that share a wall or ceiling with it.
Measure the headroom above the opening carefully, because insulated laths make a bigger roll than single-skin and need a deeper box.

Rules that apply in Hitchin

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.

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 Hitchin: questions

Do you cover Hitchin?

Yes. Hitchin is part of the area we cover in Hertfordshire, including SG5 and SG4. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

What do you check at a survey in SG5?

At a survey in SG5 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.

How much do insulated roller garage doors cost in Hitchin?

Our guide price for insulated roller garage doors is from £1,495 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Hitchin as elsewhere we cover.

Do you charge more for Hitchin than other towns in Hertfordshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Hitchin as for anywhere else we cover in Hertfordshire. 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.

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.

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.
