What should I know about low-headroom roller garage doors in Cambridge?
- Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.
- Consider where the power supply would reach the motor if the box ends up under the lintel or on the outside wall.
- Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
- Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Cambridge: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Cambridge?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Cambridge 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.
Do you cover Cambridge?
Yes. Cambridge is part of the area we cover in Cambridgeshire, including CB2 and CB4. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Cambridge?
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 I need permission for a new roller garage door in Cambridge?
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 there any garage where a roller door won't fit?
Occasionally an opening has no headroom inside, no wall above it outside for a face-fitted box, and too little height to lose any under the lintel. There can still be options, such as altering the lintel, which is priced on survey. If we can't find a sensible solution, we'll tell you plainly rather than fit something that won't work.
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.
