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

Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.
Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.
Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
If your home is on a newer estate, read your deeds for any covenant that covers changes to the front of the garage.

How does it work in Perth?

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 Perth: questions

Is the survey in Perth 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 Perth?

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

What do you check at a survey in PH1?

At a survey in PH1 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.

Can I get a price for Perth 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.

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.

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.
