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

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.
Check whether the garage has power, because a manual door needs none, while converting to electric later would need a supply near the box.

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 Caterham: questions

How much do manual roller garage doors cost in Caterham?

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 Caterham as elsewhere we cover.

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

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

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

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 Caterham 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 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.

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.
