What should I know about low-headroom roller garage doors in Kilwinning?

Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.
Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.
Ask to see the clear opening height you would keep with each box position before you settle on one.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Kilwinning: questions

Do you charge more for Kilwinning than other towns in Ayrshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Kilwinning as for anywhere else we cover in Ayrshire. 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 the survey in Kilwinning 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 KA13?

At a survey in KA13 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 Kilwinning?

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.

Can I move pipes or a light to make room for the box?

Sometimes that's the simplest answer. If a pipe, cable or light fitting sits just where the box needs to go, moving it may let the box go behind the lintel in the usual way. Any electrical changes should be made by a qualified electrician. We'll point out obstructions at survey and include any work we're doing in the written quote.

Can a smaller lath reduce the box size?

Lath size is one of the things that decides box size, because larger laths make a bigger roll. On narrower doors a smaller lath can help where headroom is tight. On wider doors, though, larger laths add the rigidity the curtain needs, so there's a balance to strike. We recommend the lath at survey based on your width, height and headroom.
