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

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.
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.

Rules that apply in Cardiff

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Wales. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), is 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 in Wales before it starts.

Steel roller garage doors in Cardiff: questions

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

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 I get a price for Cardiff 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 cover Cardiff?

Yes. Cardiff is part of the area we cover in South Glamorgan, including CF10, CF11 and CF24. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

How much do steel roller garage doors cost in Cardiff?

Our guide price for steel roller garage doors is from £1,345 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Cardiff as elsewhere we cover.

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.

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.
