With automation the cumbersome days of having to get out of your vehicle every time you arrive home, whatever the weather, to deal with unlocking and opening a manual garage door are over!

And lets face it, English weather is at best unpredictable and often cold, wet and windy.

Automated Roller Garage Doors

The process of automating existing doors or replacing the door with a modern fully automated model such as a roller garage door, used to be an exclusive luxury.

Remote Control

These days improvements in technology and affordability mean the security benefits and convenience of remote control automation can be experienced by all.

At the touch of button there’s no need to leave the comfort of the car until you are in your property.

In today’s society we live in relative luxury in comparison to previous decades. Automation of your garage door is now well within everyone’s means.

Who wants to get out of the car when it is pouring with rain to open their garage? Or pop out to the freezer and struggle with the door carrying the food? You need an automated garage door.

It may be possible to automate your existing door or you may need a new door. But, the first requisite you need is power to your garage! Believe it or not, I have been out to survey for a new automation and the customer hasn’t realised they didn’t have power in their garage!

If you don’t have power, there are some types of garage door that can run off a rechargeable power pack. Bear in mind these are more expensive than the usual automations and the battery packs will need replacing after three to five years.

Retractable and sectional garage doors automate perfectly. Do bear in mind we need space above the opening garage door to fit the operating device. This will then plug into a three-pin socket.

Canopy doors, particularly the older models, cannot be automated. A motor can only pull and push and a canopy door also needs upwards force. There are bow arms on the market, but we find these incredibly difficult to fit and can be unreliable at getting the door to open fully. Hence, we won’t automate canopy doors.

It is possible to change the canopy gearing to retractable. We can source kits for this. This is particularly helpful when the door itself is in good condition and does not require changing.

These days, automation operates from a remote or from your smartphone via an app and Bluetooth. There are also options of different colour remotes, external and internal keypads, and push buttons.

We choose to use Hörmann for garage door operators as we find these to be the best. They offer a range of motors that offer a variety of different applications.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We are very pleased with all aspects of our garage door installation and delighted with the quality and appearance of the end result. Matt was extremely diligent in explaining the options available during our initial meeting and we found the pricing very competitive. The installation was carried out on time with our queries being dealt with courteously, the old door was taken away and the area left clean and tidy. It is rare these days to experience excellent service from start to finish and we thoroughly recommend Matt and his team if you are considering a new garage door.

 Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Pleased with the service from booking an initial appointment, choices given, selection, date and then installation by a friendly crew. Although my garage was a standard single size their speed (2.5 hours) to remove old and install new was very efficient and I’m pleased with the product, the look and the finishing.
