What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Newton Aycliffe?
- Consider battery backup if the garage is your main way in, so the door keeps working for a limited number of cycles in a power cut.
- Ask to see the certificate for the exact door model in your quote, and check that the model name and rating match.
- Count the remote fobs your household needs and plan where they'll live, as a lost fob should be recoded out of the system.
- Look at the lintel and the brickwork around the opening, as a rated door relies on sound masonry for its fixings.

Security-rated roller garage doors in Newton Aycliffe: questions
Is the survey in Newton Aycliffe 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.
Can I get a price for Newton Aycliffe 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.
Do you charge more for Newton Aycliffe than other towns in County Durham?
No. Guide prices are the same for Newton Aycliffe as for anywhere else we cover in County Durham. 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Newton Aycliffe?
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 Newton Aycliffe. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Is a higher LPS 1175 rating always better for a house?
A higher rating means the door resisted a more serious attack for longer in testing, but that doesn't make it the right choice for every home. Think about what the garage connects to, what's stored inside and what your insurer asks for. We'll explain the ratings available on the models we can supply and show you each certificate, so you can decide.
Does a security-rated roller door have a manual override?
Like most electric roller doors, it normally has a manual override for power cuts, usually an internal crank or winding handle. Where the garage has no other way in, an external override may be possible, though it's worth thinking about where it sits. Battery backup is another option, running the door for a limited number of cycles while the power is off.
