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

Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.
Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.
If your home is on a newer estate, read your deeds for any covenant that covers changes to the front of the garage.
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 Limavady: questions

How much do low-headroom roller garage doors cost in Limavady?

Our guide price for low-headroom roller garage doors is from £1,195 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 Limavady as elsewhere we cover.

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Limavady?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Northern Ireland, and widening the opening needs building control approval from your council. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Is the survey in Limavady 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 you remove my old garage door in Limavady?

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

Does a face-fitted roller box look out of place?

It's a matter of taste. A face-fitted box sits on the front of the wall above the opening, so it's visible, but it can be finished to match the curtain, and it avoids losing height under the lintel. If you live on a newer estate or in a conservation area, check any covenants or planning restrictions first.
