What should I know about manual roller garage doors in Luton?

Ask how the bottom-rail lock works and where the keys will be kept, since the lock is what secures a closed manual door.
Measure the headroom above the opening, as the coiled curtain still needs a box at the top even without a motor.
Check the floor across the opening is level, because the bottom rail needs to sit evenly for the lock to engage properly.
If the door is for a lock-up or garage court, list each opening separately, as every door is measured and priced for its own opening.

How does it work in Luton?

We then book a free survey in Luton to measure the headroom and side room and to check the lintel and floor. You get a written quote showing the door, finish and total price with VAT.

Rules that apply in Luton

Powered door safety

Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.

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.

Manual roller garage doors in Luton: questions

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

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 Luton garage so you can compare.

Is the survey in Luton 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 Luton than other towns in Bedfordshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Luton as for anywhere else we cover in Bedfordshire. 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.

How much do manual roller garage doors cost in Luton?

Our guide price for manual roller garage doors is from £895 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 Luton as elsewhere we cover.

Can a manual roller door be converted to electric later?

Only if the existing door is right for it. A manual-to-electric conversion needs the curtain, barrel, box and guides to be sound and compatible with a tubular motor, and a power supply has to be added near the box. We check all of this at a free survey. If the door isn't suitable, we'll tell you plainly and price a new electric door.

Do manual roller doors need servicing?

They need less attention than an electric door, but basic care still helps. Keep the guide rails free of leaves and grit, and only use the lubricant the manufacturer recommends, as many doors shouldn't have oil on the guides. If the door becomes heavy to lift, drops on its own or runs unevenly, stop using it and ask for a visit, priced and agreed beforehand.
