What should I know about made-to-measure roller garage doors in Wickford?

Have your rough measurements to hand when you request a guide price, even though the door is built to the survey sizes.
Measure the width at the top, middle and bottom of the opening, because older garages are often slightly out of square.
Look for pipes, cables or lights near the top of the opening inside, because they may need moving to make room for the box.
Check the height at both sides and in the middle, since an uneven floor can make one side of the opening taller than the other.

How does it work in Wickford?

When you accept the quote, the door is ordered to those sizes and your fitting date is confirmed in writing. The date depends on installer availability.

Rules that apply in Wickford

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.

Made-to-measure roller garage doors in Wickford: questions

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Wickford?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Wickford?

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 Wickford garage so you can compare.

Is the survey in Wickford 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.

Do you charge more for Wickford than other towns in Essex?

No. Guide prices are the same for Wickford as for anywhere else we cover in Essex. 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 order a made-to-measure door without a survey?

We don't order doors from customer measurements alone. The door is built to sizes taken at our free survey, where we also check the lintel, headroom, floor and power. That way, if the door doesn't fit, getting the sizes right is our job, not yours. Your own measurements are still useful for the online guide price before the survey.

Why might my measurements differ from the surveyor's?

Openings are rarely perfectly square, so width and height often vary by a few millimetres from one point to another. The surveyor measures at several points, checks the floor level and works to the figures the door must fit. Small differences from your own measurements are normal, and the written quote is based on the survey.
