Roller Garage Doors supplied and installed in West and East Sussex

If you have sufficient ceiling clearance at the front of your garage then roller garage doors are a perfect choice. These doors feature a single curtain that neatly rolls up onto a spindle and tucks 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 doesn't need a door frame, which provides greater drive-through width. These doors can be made from either steel or aluminium and are typically designed with hinged slats or as a single sheet. Both manual and electric options are offered.

Secure Roller Doors for Garages in East and West Sussex

Roller doors offer excellent security and reliable weather protection as standard features. The seal surrounding the roller door not only deters unauthorised entry but also enhances its resistance to the elements. For colder climates, fully insulated options are also available. We work across West and East Sussex delivering the most high quality, durable and expertly installed roller garage doors, including Eastbourne, Shoreham, Haywards Heath, Hastings, Burgess Hill, Brighton, Crawley, East Grinstead, and Worthing.

Roller Garage Door Materials

The roll-up garage doors have options for both steel and aluminium. 

Aluminium Roller Garage Doors

An alloy roller garage door consists of insulated aluminium slats that resemble the automatic shutters found on commercial buildings. 

These individual slats interlock and roll around a steel barrel, requiring minimal space above the door frame. Our experience has shown us that homeowners typically prefer aluminium roller garage doors over less expensive steel options because of their lightweight nature, long-lasting durability, and resistance to corrosion. Additionally, the double-skinned design offers enhanced insulation and sealing compared to many other types of garage doors.

Steel Roller Doors

Steel garage doors offer an affordable option and are galvanised to withstand the weather conditions.

Both sides of the door receive a coating of polyester powder, which is then baked to ensure that it melts and solidifies into a durable, smooth surface. They come in an array of colours to complement 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….
