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

Ask how the bottom-rail lock works and where the keys will be kept, since the lock is what secures a closed manual door.
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.
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.

Rules that apply in Wallington

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.

Manual roller garage doors in Wallington: questions

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Wallington?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

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

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

Can you remove my old garage door in Wallington?

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

What do you check at a survey in SM6?

At a survey in SM6 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.

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.

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.
