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

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

Do you charge more for Merthyr Tydfil than other towns in Mid Glamorgan?

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Merthyr Tydfil?

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

Is an insulated door possible with low headroom?

Often, yes. Insulated laths make a larger roll than single-skin laths of the same height, so the box is bigger. If that box won't fit behind the lintel, it can go under the lintel or in front of the wall. We'll show you the clear height you'd keep with each option, so you can decide whether insulation is worth the trade-off.

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.
