Bit of topic but whilst but whilst the Ro is away Im thinking about replacing my up and over garage door with an electric roller or sectional one - standard single size. Anyone here do them or know a man who can supply one for a good price? smile

I used these guys for my sectional door they worked out around £400 cheaper than our other local firms. Ours is a novferm 40mm insulated door and it keeps the car nice and warm.

Does this mean you will be having an auto garage door opener/sensor located somewhere on your car with the unfortunate benefit of blocking radar signals....?

I always use the same company on my houses Rog.

Doorwey Products
www.isurrey.co.uk/profile/222080/Godalming/Doorwey-Products/

Get on well with the manager as the first job they did for me was on a place in Guildford where I built a double garage.
I told them to be careful when they fitted the doors as there was a couple of Ferraris in there, they were impressed.


So I put a couple of Dinky toy 360`s in there hehe

Thats just the electric drive, I need the whole lot. I would rather do DIY as well but Wicks etc dont seem to sell roller or sectional doors, only the single panel up and over ones.

i bought a 'Garador' from national door and domelight company, lightwater, surrey. they can supply all makes of door, delivering direct from the manufacturer. best price and delivery for what i wanted, but there are so many manufactureres and styles of door to choose from. got the electric opener kit from screwfix. i managed to fit it in about 2 hours.
