What should I know about steel roller garage doors in Hastings?
- Check the lintel above the opening for cracks or sagging, since a heavier steel curtain relies on sound fixings at the top.
- Look at the brick or blockwork on each side of the opening, as the guide rails for a steel door need solid reveals to fix to.
- Decide where the override handle will be stored, because you'll need it to wind a steel curtain up during a power cut.
- Find out whether there's a socket or fused spur near the box position, since every steel door we price is electric.

Rules that apply in Hastings
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.
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.
Steel roller garage doors in Hastings: questions
What do you check at a survey in TN34?
At a survey in TN34 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.
Do you charge more for Hastings than other towns in East Sussex?
No. Guide prices are the same for Hastings as for anywhere else we cover in East Sussex. 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.
Is the survey in Hastings 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 message you a photo of my garage in Hastings?
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 Hastings. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
How do I open a steel roller door in a power cut?
Use the manual override, normally an internal crank or winding handle that turns the barrel by hand. Keep it somewhere you can find quickly. A steel curtain is heavy, so take your time and wind steadily. If you'd rather not crank it, battery backup keeps the door running for a limited number of cycles while the power is off.
Can I have a manual steel roller door?
The steel doors in our price list are electric, because a steel curtain is heavier than an aluminium one and the tubular motor does the lifting. If you want a hand-operated door, our manual doors use single-skin aluminium laths. Where there's no socket near the box, a qualified electrician can fit a fused spur from an existing circuit, shown as a separate line in your quote; a new supply to a garage with no power is priced on survey.
