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

Consider where the power supply would reach the motor if the box ends up under the lintel or on the outside wall.
Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.
Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Wellington: questions

Is the survey in Wellington 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.

What do you check at a survey in TF1?

At a survey in TF1 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 Wellington than other towns in Shropshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Wellington as for anywhere else we cover in Shropshire. 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 message you a photo of my garage in Wellington?

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

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.

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.
