What should I know about steel roller garage doors in Shirley?
- Compare steel with insulated aluminium if a warmer garage is a priority, as it's the foam-filled lath that reduces heat loss.
- 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.
- 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 Shirley
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 Shirley: questions
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Shirley?
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 Shirley garage so you can compare.
Do you charge more for Shirley than other towns in the West Midlands?
No. Guide prices are the same for Shirley as for anywhere else we cover in the West Midlands. 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 I get a price for Shirley 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Shirley?
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 Shirley. 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 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.
