Steel roller garage doors in Southampton

Steel laths give a heavier, stiffer curtain, and we can fit steel roller doors in Southampton and anywhere in SO15. A free survey checks the lintel, reveals and power supply, because a heavier door needs a sound opening to fix to.

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

  • Ask to see the security certificate if resistance to forced entry matters, because steel on its own doesn't make a door security-rated.
  • Measure the width of your opening, because our steel price list covers singles up to 2.4 m and doubles of 3.0 to 4.0 m, and other widths are priced on survey.
  • Decide where the override handle will be stored, because you'll need it to wind a steel curtain up during a power cut.
  • Check the lintel above the opening for cracks or sagging, since a heavier steel curtain relies on sound fixings at the top.

Powered door safety

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.

Steel roller garage doors in Southampton: questions

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

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.

Can you remove my old garage door in Southampton?

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

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Southampton?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Southampton garage so you can compare.

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

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 repaint a steel roller door later?

When you order a new steel door, you can choose a RAL colour or woodgrain finish as a priced extra, and colours outside the manufacturer's range are priced on survey. If you're thinking of repainting the door years later, check the manufacturer's care guidance first, as their warranty terms for the door are set out in writing in your quote.

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.
