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

Compare steel with insulated aluminium if a warmer garage is a priority, as it's the foam-filled lath that reduces heat loss.
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.
Think about whether battery backup is worth adding, so the door keeps working for a limited number of cycles when the power is off.

Rules that apply in Maldon

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 Maldon: questions

Do you cover Maldon?

Yes. Maldon is part of the area we cover in Essex, including CM9. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Can I get a price for Maldon 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 Maldon than other towns in Essex?

No. Guide prices are the same for Maldon as for anywhere else we cover in Essex. 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.

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

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.

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.
