Is there any PHer that does garage doors in the Berkshire (SL1) area? Just had Garolla come out, as with all these things, positive and negative reviews online, but they're coming out tops on Trustpilot, but it's franchised and no granular scoring on local fitters, though the guy seemed nice enough.

Was wondering if anyone would recommend Garolla or if they've had experience of any others I can try? Or if there's a PHer that does this as a business, happy to support a local business.

Looking for a roller door, in anthracite, approximately 4.4m wide and 2.2m high, electric.


Thx

I've recommended rollerdoorconcepts (www.rdcuk.com) on here a few times and people have posted to say that they should be avoided however I'm over 3 years into having my large double electric roller installed by them and I've had no issues and would happily have another one fitted.
Can't remember what I paid exactly but was under £2k all in

Make of that what you will!
I've come across them on Instagram but their negative reviews seem to be piling up. 4.4 on trustpilot against 800 reviews where Garolla have a score of 4.8 against 4000 reviews so will give them a steer for now

Forgot I started this thread. Very timely as the new door goes in this week, will post up pics when done. I was turned off by Garolla. There was something “off” with the franchisee and went with my gut and avoided. Found a very local family run business, went for a Garador sectional door with motor, two remotes and Bluetooth functionality so I can control via my phone.

My final update smile

Very very very happy with it. Can't believe how quiet the motor is. Would definitely recommend the company I went with. Garage Doors Central in High Wycombe, a family run business which I'm so glad I went with (https://gdcentral.co.uk/)

Gardor sectional door in anthracite woodgrain finish, Garamatic 10 opener that comes with two fobs and works via bluetooth via the app on a phone. Final price for the double garage, including installation and removal of all of the old stuff, £3800
