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

Ask to see the clear opening height you would keep with each box position before you settle on one.
Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.

Rules that apply in Prescot

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Powered door safety

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Prescot: questions

Can I get a price for Prescot 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.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Prescot?

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 L34?

At a survey in L34 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.

Do you charge more for Prescot than other towns in Merseyside?

No. Guide prices are the same for Prescot as for anywhere else we cover in Merseyside. 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.

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.

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.
