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

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.
Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.

How does it work in Lancaster?

Once you accept the quote, your fitting date is confirmed in writing, depending on installer availability. On the day, the box is fixed exactly where the quote says.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Lancaster: questions

Is the survey in Lancaster 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 Lancaster?

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

Yes. Lancaster is part of the area we cover in Lancashire, including LA1 and LA4. 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 Lancaster than other towns in Lancashire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Lancaster as for anywhere else we cover in Lancashire. 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.

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.
