What should I know about steel roller garage doors in Barnstaple?

Find out whether there's a socket or fused spur near the box position, since every steel door we price is electric.
Think about whether battery backup is worth adding, so the door keeps working for a limited number of cycles when the power is off.
Check the lintel above the opening for cracks or sagging, since a heavier steel curtain relies on sound fixings at the top.
Ask to see the security certificate if resistance to forced entry matters, because steel on its own doesn't make a door security-rated.

How does it work in Barnstaple?

Once you accept, the fitting date is confirmed in writing, depending on installer availability. If a new spur is needed, it's shown in the quote and fitted by a qualified electrician.

Rules that apply in Barnstaple

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.

Steel roller garage doors in Barnstaple: questions

Can you remove my old garage door in Barnstaple?

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

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

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 Barnstaple?

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

What do you check at a survey in EX31?

At a survey in EX31 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.

Why are steel doors over 4 m wide priced on survey?

Our standard steel price list covers single openings up to 2.4 m and doubles of 3.0 to 4.0 m; other widths are priced on survey. A wider steel door needs the opening, lintel and fixing points checked individually before the right door can be specified, so we price it after the survey rather than from a table. For openings up to about 5.5 m, insulated aluminium doors have a set price band you can see online.

Is a steel door the right choice for a row of lock-ups?

It can be, particularly where a stiffer curtain appeals for garages that are opened less often. Every steel door in our price list is electric, though, so each garage needs a power supply near its box. Where lock-ups have no power, manual aluminium doors may be more practical. We can survey and price a whole row together.
