Garage Door Replacement with Roller Door

C n C,
I do not propose to do all the research for PHers! My responses to your questions are as follows:
2. IMO, one firm's doors were significantly over engineered. Another firm's door looked very flimsy, and in fact their sample was already coming apart!
3. Total costs quoted, for 4 doors and their installation, ranged between about £10,000 and £4,000. These quotes contain significant discounts because there's four doors being replaced by my neighbour and I.
4. I am not prepared to respond in full to this question because I do not know the purpose of your interest eg customer or supplier. The doors are being supplied by Novoferm.
All quotes include removal and disposal of all items related to the doors that are being replaced. The quotes do not include the required electrical work in the garage to supply power to the motors for the roller doors. I do not know why my location is of any importance but it is between London and the English Channel!
I hope this responds to to your post....sort of.

You know you’re just talking about a garage door, it’s not an Mi6 National secret, and no-ones copying your maths homework….it’s ok to say what garage door company you googled. No-ones going to die if you do. I do not propose to do all the research for PHers! My responses to your questions are as follows:

Had the new garage doors for a week now.
They came with four transmitters, two for each door. Each transmitter works both doors. Three of the transmitters work OK, the other operates only one door.
The neighbour's four transmitters all work OK but one of the two interior lights in his garage fails to work.
The door fitters are here next Tuesday to sort these minor issues out.
Separately, the last power cut here was probably 15 years ago. We get new powered garage doors and 5 days later we had a power cut Wednesday morning and another Wednesday evening. Both cars in the garage in the morning but one left out once power restored. Garage and cars now sorted so that can get access to the manual winding tool to self wind the doors if we have any further power cuts.

We had ours done a few months ago.
Got several quotes, varied from £1000 up to £2750x
Figured it’s a garage door, it goes up and down so we went with Garolla for £1000.
Is it the best door in the world? Nope but it fits fine and it’s goes up and down.
I get what you say. However, we use the garage doors maybe 4-8 times a day at least so we decided that we needed something that we felt would last this rate of usage. When the Garolla rep was here ahead of giving us a quote he was very keen to discuss the mechanism etc, and show us samples. He was rather embarrassed when the sample door mechanism fell apart all over the garage floor!Got several quotes, varied from £1000 up to £2750x

Resurrecting this thread…
We’ve just received a quote for insulated roller garage doors. Two single doors with electric motors etc.
Hormann £3800 per door
WPP £3340 per door.
Prices inclusive of VAT and fitting.
Granted the prices mentioned previously in this thread were last year but I think these are pretty punchy, or am I just in denial?

However, costs have gone up.
My neighbour got a quote last autumn, for his garage door from same firm as I used back in 2021, so same door, same size, same everything pretty much, and quote was just a shade under a grand more than mine 2 years before, so costs/prices have gone up a lot in past 18 months or so.....?

Just to answer my own question, yes, very much so.We’ve just had another quote for the exact same Hormann doors for £5k including VAT and fitting for 2 doors, that’s £2.6k cheaper.
