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

Measure the headroom above the opening carefully, because insulated laths make a bigger roll than single-skin and need a deeper box.
If the garage is integral, consider how much cold air and noise currently reaches the rooms that share a wall or ceiling with it.
Look for a socket or fused spur near the top of the opening, as every insulated door in our price list is electric.
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.

Rules that apply in Kelso

Structural work

Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Part P does not apply in Scotland, but electrical work must meet BS 7671 and the Scottish building standards where it forms part of building work.

Insulated roller garage doors in Kelso: questions

What do you check at a survey in TD5?

At a survey in TD5 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 long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Kelso?

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.

Do you charge more for Kelso than other towns in the Scottish Borders?

No. Guide prices are the same for Kelso as for anywhere else we cover in the Scottish Borders. 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.

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

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 Kelso garage so you can compare.

Is an insulated door more secure than a single-skin one?

Not automatically. Insulation and burglary resistance are separate qualities. How well a door resists attack depends on how that specific manufacturer's model has been tested, for example to LPS 1175 or STS 202. If security is a priority, look at our security-rated doors, which are also insulated, and we'll show you the certificate for the exact model.

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.
