Steel roller garage doors in Shipley
Steel laths give a heavier, stiffer curtain, and we can fit steel roller doors in Shipley and anywhere in BD18. 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 Shipley?
- Find out whether there's a socket or fused spur near the box position, since every steel door we price is electric.
- Check the lintel above the opening for cracks or sagging, since a heavier steel curtain relies on sound fixings at the top.
- 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.

Rules that apply in Shipley
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 Shipley: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Shipley?
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 you remove my old garage door in Shipley?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Shipley 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.
How much do steel roller garage doors cost in Shipley?
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 Shipley as elsewhere we cover.
Is the survey in Shipley really free?
Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.
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.
