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

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.
Check the clear wall either side of the opening, since the guide rails typically need around 75 to 100 mm each side.
Note any piers, downpipes or meter boxes outside the opening that could affect a face-fixed door or box.

How does it work in Colne?

Rules that apply in Colne

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 Colne: questions

Is the survey in Colne 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 you remove my old garage door in Colne?

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

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

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 Colne as elsewhere we cover.

Do you charge more for Colne than other towns in Lancashire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Colne as for anywhere else we cover in Lancashire. 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.

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.

Is a made-to-measure door more expensive than a standard size?

Our prices are set in width bands, and the door within each band is built to your measured sizes. The guide price changes when an opening moves into a wider band, or when it needs work beyond the door itself, such as a new lintel or building out the reveals. That extra work is priced on survey and shown on its own line in your written quote.
