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

Note any piers, downpipes or meter boxes outside the opening that could affect a face-fixed door or box.
Read the sizes, fitting position and box position in your written quote carefully, because that's what the door will be made to.
Measure the width at the top, middle and bottom of the opening, because older garages are often slightly out of square.
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.

Rules that apply in Ipswich

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 Ipswich: questions

Can I get a price for Ipswich without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

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

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 Ipswich as elsewhere we cover.

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

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 the survey in Ipswich 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 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.

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.
