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

Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind 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.
Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
Consider where the power supply would reach the motor if the box ends up under the lintel or on the outside wall.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Musselburgh: questions

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

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 Musselburgh as elsewhere we cover.

Do you charge more for Musselburgh than other towns in Edinburgh and the Lothians?

No. Guide prices are the same for Musselburgh as for anywhere else we cover in Edinburgh and the Lothians. 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 Musselburgh 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 Musselburgh 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.

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.

Is an insulated door possible with low headroom?

Often, yes. Insulated laths make a larger roll than single-skin laths of the same height, so the box is bigger. If that box won't fit behind the lintel, it can go under the lintel or in front of the wall. We'll show you the clear height you'd keep with each option, so you can decide whether insulation is worth the trade-off.
