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

Find out whether there's a socket or fused spur near the box position, since every steel door we price is electric.
Decide where the override handle will be stored, because you'll need it to wind a steel curtain up during a power cut.
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.
Check the lintel above the opening for cracks or sagging, since a heavier steel curtain relies on sound fixings at the top.

How does it work in Sevenoaks?

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 Sevenoaks

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.

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.

Steel roller garage doors in Sevenoaks: questions

Do you charge more for Sevenoaks than other towns in Kent?

No. Guide prices are the same for Sevenoaks as for anywhere else we cover in Kent. 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 you remove my old garage door in Sevenoaks?

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

What do you check at a survey in TN13?

At a survey in TN13 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.

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

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 Sevenoaks garage so you can compare.

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.
