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

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.
Ask to see the clear opening height you would keep with each box position before you settle on one.
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 Northolt: questions

Can you remove my old garage door in Northolt?

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

Yes. Northolt is part of the area we cover in Greater London, including UB5, UB6 and UB1. 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 Northolt?

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.

What do you check at a survey in UB5?

At a survey in UB5 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.

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.

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.
