Garage door repair and installation, nationwide

Garage door repair

Fault diagnosis and repair for roller, sectional, up-and-over and side-hinged garage doors — springs, cables, operators, tracks, photocells and remotes — carried out by local engineers with a free quote before any work starts.

Garage door installation

Supply and fit of a new garage door — roller, sectional, up-and-over or side-hinged — including removal and disposal of the old door, matched to your opening after a site survey.

Electric garage door installation

Supply and fit of a new electric garage door — roller, sectional or retractable-gear up-and-over — complete with operator, remote handset and compliant safety photocells.

Garage door servicing

A routine engineer inspection and light maintenance visit — lubrication, tension and alignment checks, photocell function test — aimed at catching wear before it causes a breakdown.

Garage door automation (manual to electric conversion)

Adding an operator, remote control and compliant safety photocells to your existing manual garage door — the lower-cost route to electric operation where the door and gear are suitable.

Roller garage doors

Installation and repair of roller garage doors — the compact, coiling-curtain door type that needs the least headroom of the common UK options.

Sectional garage doors

Installation and repair of sectional garage doors — the horizontal-panel, four-sided-seal door type that typically offers the best insulation of the common UK options.

Up-and-over garage doors

Installation and repair of up-and-over garage doors — the single-panel, pivoting door type identified first by canopy or retractable gear.

Side-hinged garage doors

Installation and repair of side-hinged garage doors — the two-leaf swinging door type offering full walk-in access and the widest material choice of any common UK door.

Garage door spring and cable replacement

Replacement of garage door springs and lifting cables by a trained engineer — the counterbalance components that make a heavy door safe to lift, whether by hand or by an operator.

Roller garage door

A curtain of interlocking aluminium slats that rolls up into a barrel above the opening — the most space-efficient common UK garage door, well suited to low-headroom garages and short driveways.

£1,700–£2,800 inc. VAT

Sectional garage door

Horizontal insulated panels linked by hinges that travel vertically then horizontally along ceiling-mounted tracks — the best-sealing and typically best-insulated common UK garage door.

£1,650–£3,500 inc. VAT

Up-and-over garage door

A single steel panel that pivots up and back into the garage on a counterbalanced track, identified first by whether the gear is canopy or retractable — the cheapest and most common UK garage door type.

£850–£2,500 inc. VAT

Side-hinged garage door

Two hinged leaves that swing outward from either side of the frame like a pair of gates — the door type that gives easiest walk-in access and the widest material choice, from steel to bespoke hardwood.

£1,350–£10,000 inc. VAT

Insulated garage door

Not a separate mechanism but a construction choice — a foam-filled, double-skin panel available across sectional, roller and side-hinged doors, worth paying for wherever the garage is heated, attached, or used as a living or utility space.

£1,895–£3,500 inc. VAT

Electric garage door

Not a door type itself but an operator added to roller, sectional or retractable-gear up-and-over doors — the automation layer that turns manual daily lifting into a remote-controlled press of a button, governed in the UK by a specific safety-in-use standard.

£1,500–£3,500 inc. VAT
