What should I know about low-headroom roller garage doors in Sunbury-on-Thames?

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.
Ask to see the clear opening height you would keep with each box position before you settle on one.
If your home is on a newer estate, read your deeds for any covenant that covers changes to the front of the garage.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Sunbury-on-Thames: questions

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Sunbury-on-Thames?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Sunbury-on-Thames garage so you can compare.

What do you check at a survey in TW16?

At a survey in TW16 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 you remove my old garage door in Sunbury-on-Thames?

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

Is the survey in Sunbury-on-Thames 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.

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.

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.
