Efficiently Installed Roller Garage Doors in Eastbourne

Professional Roller Garage Door Installers in Eastbourne

Roller garage doors are an ideal option if you have enough space at the front of your garage. They boast a single curtain that rolls up onto a spindle and neatly stores away into the overhead space.

Roller doors typically require just a minimal section of clear brickwork alongside the entrance and a ceiling clearance of at least 20cm (8in) above the bottom edge of the lintel. The door slides straight up, before rolling up and out of sight.

A roller garage door offers a wider drive-through width without the need for a door frame. It can be constructed using steel or aluminium and is commonly designed with hinged slats or as a single sheet. Both manual and electric variations are available.

Secure Roller Doors for Garages in Eastbourne

As standard features, roller doors provide reliable weather protection and excellent security. The seal around the door not only prevents unauthorised entry, but also reinforces its durability against harsh elements. Additionally, for colder regions, fully insulated options are offered.

For our Eastbourne clients, we offer a wide selection of roller garage doors. To learn more, reach out to us through our 'Contact Us' page or by calling our office in Eastbourne at 01323 729230.

Roller Garage Door Materials

Both steel and aluminium are options for the roll-up garage doors.

Aluminium Roller Garage Doors

The roller garage door is made of an alloy material and features insulated aluminium slats, similar in appearance to the automatic shutters commonly seen on commercial buildings.

The slats of these roller garage doors conveniently interlock and rotate within a steel barrel, requiring very little space above the door frame. Our findings reveal that most homeowners favour aluminium doors over cheaper steel choices due to their lightweight construction, impressive durability, and anti-corrosion properties. Furthermore, the double-skinned design provides superior insulation and sealing capabilities compared to alternative garage door options.

Steel Roller Doors

With an affordable price point, steel garage doors are also galvanised to withstand various weather conditions.

Polyester powder is applied to both sides of the door, followed by baking to ensure a durable and smooth finish. A variety of colours are available to enhance the overall appearance of your property.

FAQs – Roller Garage Doors

Most commonly asked questions in East & West Sussex regarding Roller Garage Doors:

Garage door seals work by forming a tight, secure barrier around the door itself. Even when the garage door is shut, you might notice slight breezes getting through to the inside.

Roller shutter doors are incredibly secure, as the curtain is held in place by the guide runners. The straps which lift the door are also responsible for pressing down on the curtain when closed, inhibiting movement in any direction.

If you have purchased a roller garage door, then the good news is that you don’t need a new frame to install it. Roller garage doors can affix to the brickwork opening of the garage, – either on the back of it or between.

Aluminium roller garage doors are the most popular choice. Robust and durable, an aluminium door is also much lighter than other hard metals such as steel. With less of a load placed on the door’s opening mechanisms, it is likely to offer a longer service life.

Assuming you don’t back your car into it, your garage door should last, on average, 20-30 years, while garage door openers should be remain operative for between 10-15 years.

Unfortunately, there is no such thing as a weatherproof door as the components need to be able to open and close, making a complete seal impossible.

Although steel, single-skin roller doors have individual benefits for particular applications, aluminium roller garage doors are the best option for insulation and security due to the increased thickness of the door leaf.

The price for a new installation of roller garage doors depends on a number of factors:

  • The size of garage opening 
  • The age of the garage structure 
  • Additional door features required 
  • How easy the location is to access 
  • The condition of the current garage 
  • Many other factors….
