Remote-controlled garage doors, made to measure

The old garage door problem

Many garage doors are tired: heavy to lift, flaking paint, rusty springs and a gap at the bottom that lets in leaves and rain. They make the whole front of the house look neglected and they do little to keep thieves out.

A new garage door fixes that. It locks securely and opens at the touch of a button.

The garage door is often the biggest single surface on the front of your house. Replacing it with a clean, modern door in a colour that matches your windows and front door makes the whole property look cared for.

Which type of garage door suits you?

Our most popular garage doors are roller, sectional and up-and-over. Each works differently, and the best choice depends on your garage, your driveway and how you use the space.

Think about how much space you have on the drive, how much headroom is inside the garage and whether you use it for parking, storage or both.

• Roller garage doors roll up into a compact box above the opening, so they take up very little room inside or out.
• Sectional garage doors are made of panels that rise straight up and slide back along the ceiling, so you can park close to the door.
• Up-and-over garage doors tilt out and up in one piece, a familiar and simple design.

Roller garage doors: Economy or Deluxe

A roller door rolls up into a box above the opening, so it saves space inside the garage and on a short drive. The curtain is aluminium with a high-density foam filling, so it will not rust and it helps keep the garage warmer. It can be fitted inside or outside the opening.

• Economy: insulated aluminium curtain, a motor with two remote controls, spring assistance, autolocks that hold the door down tight, and a manual release.
• Deluxe: adds a tube motor with an internal manual release, reinforced end plates and a laminated finish with a 15-year colourfast warranty.
• Extras you can add: a door monitor system that protects the whole door rather than just the bottom edge, an alarm, a keypad, a courtesy light, a hood lock and a through-wall drive for garages with no other way in.
• Colours: nine standard paint finishes (White, Brown, Jet Black, Steel Blue, Anthracite Grey, Carmine Red, Light Ivory, Fir Green and Golden Oak), or around 100 laminated colours.

Low maintenance, high convenience

Because our garage doors are wood free, you do not have to paint them year after year. An occasional wash keeps them looking smart for years to come.

Remote control means you can open the garage from the car on a wet night and close it behind you. It is quicker, and much easier for anyone who finds a manual door heavy.

Impartial advice and a proper fit

It is worth knowing the main benefits of each type before you choose. Our garage door team will give you honest, impartial advice, measure your opening and check the space inside your garage.

We then make your door to specification and fit it. You can browse our electric garage door catalogue or try our online garage door designer before we visit.

Pair it with a new garage roof

If your garage roof is leaking or the felt is past its best, we can replace that too. EPDM rubber is a popular choice for flat garage roofs.

Doing the door and roof together means one survey and one team. We fit garage doors from all seven of our branches. Spread the cost with Flexi-Pro finance.
