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

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.
Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.
Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Sittingbourne: questions

Do you cover Sittingbourne?

Yes. Sittingbourne is part of the area we cover in Kent, including ME10 and ME9. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Do you charge more for Sittingbourne than other towns in Kent?

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

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

What do you check at a survey in ME10?

At a survey in ME10 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.

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.

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.
