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

Ask to see the clear opening height you would keep with each box position before you settle on one.
If your home is on a newer estate, read your deeds for any covenant that covers changes to the front of the garage.
Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.
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 Ashton-in-Makerfield: questions

Do you charge more for Ashton-in-Makerfield than other towns in Greater Manchester?

No. Guide prices are the same for Ashton-in-Makerfield as for anywhere else we cover in Greater Manchester. 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 Ashton-in-Makerfield 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 Ashton-in-Makerfield?

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

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

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 Ashton-in-Makerfield as elsewhere we cover.

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.

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.
