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

Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
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.
Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Macclesfield: questions

Can you remove my old garage door in Macclesfield?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Macclesfield 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.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Macclesfield?

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

Is the survey in Macclesfield 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.

Can I get a price for Macclesfield without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

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 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.
