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

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.
Look at the reveals on each side for solid masonry, because the guide rails need roughly 75 to 100 mm of wall to fix to.
Bear in mind that manual doors suit narrower openings best, and wider curtains get heavier to lift even with spring assistance.

Rules that apply in England

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.

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.

Questions about manual roller garage doors in Cumbria

Start with the guide price tool or the form on this page. We then contact you to arrange a free survey for a new door, replacement or conversion, and confirm the date in writing.

Are guide prices the same across Cumbria?

Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Cumbria. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.

Which towns do you cover in Cumbria?

We cover Cumbria, including Carlisle, Barrow-in-Furness, Kendal and Whitehaven. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Cumbria online.

Can I have insulated laths on a manual roller door?

Our manual doors use single-skin aluminium laths, and the insulated doors in our price list are electric. So if a warmer, quieter garage is what you're after, you'd be looking at an insulated electric door. Compare the two price bands for your width and think about how you use the space before deciding whether the extra cost is worth it.

Can I fit a manual roller door to a garage with no electricity?

Yes, and that's one of its main advantages. A manual door needs no motor, no control box and no power supply, so it suits detached garages, lock-ups and outbuildings without electrics. If you want an electric door there later, a qualified electrician would need to provide a fused spur, which adds cost and depends on getting a supply to the garage.
