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

Think about who will open the door and how often, since a manual curtain has to be lifted and pulled down by hand every time.
Check the floor across the opening is level, because the bottom rail needs to sit evenly for the lock to engage properly.
Measure the headroom above the opening, as the coiled curtain still needs a box at the top even without a motor.
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.

Rules that apply in Heston

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.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.

Manual roller garage doors in Heston: questions

Can I get a price for Heston 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.

Is the survey in Heston 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.

What do you check at a survey in TW5?

At a survey in TW5 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.

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

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

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.

Is a manual roller door a good fit for a garage court or lock-up?

Often, yes. Manual roller doors are practical for private garage courts and lock-ups owned by landlords, residents' associations or management companies, especially where individual garages have no power. We can survey and price several doors together, and each opening is measured separately so every door is made for its own opening.
