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

Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.
Consider where the power supply would reach the motor if the box ends up under the lintel or on the outside wall.
Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.

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 Crawley: questions

Do you cover Crawley?

Yes. Crawley is part of the area we cover in West Sussex, including RH11 and RH10. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

What do you check at a survey in RH11?

At a survey in RH11 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 Crawley?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Crawley 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 Crawley 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 a smaller lath reduce the box size?

Lath size is one of the things that decides box size, because larger laths make a bigger roll. On narrower doors a smaller lath can help where headroom is tight. On wider doors, though, larger laths add the rigidity the curtain needs, so there's a balance to strike. We recommend the lath at survey based on your width, height and headroom.

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.
