Question 1

Can you automate my existing door?

Accepted Answer

It depends on your door type. We can automate existing up-and-over doors by fitting an electric operator. For sectional and roller doors we can replace or upgrade the motor operator. Side-hinged doors cannot be automated, the mechanism does not support electric operation. Call us and we will confirm what is possible for your specific door.

Question 2

Do you install front doors too?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Comp Door composite front doors and Ryterna aluminium front doors. Many customers match a new front door to a new garage door.

Question 3

Do you offer finance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, through Ideal4Finance. Typical plans are 0% over 12 months on installs over £2,000.

Question 4

Do you remove the old door?

Accepted Answer

Yes, every quote includes removal and ethical disposal of your existing door. We recycle the steel and aluminium where possible.

Question 5

How long does a typical garage door installation take?

Accepted Answer

A standard replacement (sectional or up-and-over) takes around 4-6 hours on a single visit. Roller doors with full automation can be 6-8 hours. Side-hinged with frame replacement is usually a full day.

Question 6

What if my door breaks outside working hours?

Accepted Answer

Call the main line and leave a message with 'urgent'. For total failures we aim to attend same-day or next-morning.

Question 7

What warranty do you offer?

Accepted Answer

Manufacturer warranties run from 5 to 10 years on the door itself. We add a 5 year parts and labour guarantee on every install on top of that, plus a free service visit at the 12-month mark for automated doors.
