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

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.
Check the clear wall either side of the opening, since the guide rails typically need around 75 to 100 mm each side.
Measure the width at the top, middle and bottom of the opening, because older garages are often slightly out of square.

Rules that apply in Croydon

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 Croydon: questions

How much do made-to-measure roller garage doors cost in Croydon?

Our guide price for made-to-measure roller garage doors is from £1,495 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Croydon as elsewhere we cover.

What do you check at a survey in CR0?

At a survey in CR0 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.

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

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 Croydon garage so you can compare.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Croydon?

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

What if my opening is narrower than a typical garage door?

Narrow openings are fine, because the door is built to your width. Side room is the main thing to check, since each guide rail needs some clear wall beside the opening. If the opening is narrow and you'd like as much clear width as possible, we'll explain how each fitting position affects the space you'll have for the car.

Can I choose the finish and extras on a made-to-measure door?

Yes. Alongside the sizes, you can choose the lath type, a RAL colour or woodgrain finish, vision or vent laths, and for electric doors extras such as a wireless keypad, smart app control or battery backup. Each choice is written into your quote with its price, so the door that's ordered matches exactly what you agreed.
