Hörmann sectional doors, Glossop

Hörmann sectional doors, Glossop, Derbyshire

Recently installed by Pennine Garage Doors for a customer in one of our main areas, lovely Glossop in Derbyshire. Chosen in a gorgeous chartwell green colour, we think you’ll agree that these doors look fantastic.

Fully automatic and operated with just the press of a remote control, these doors are of very high quality and at the top end of garage door types. The old doors that were replaced were manual up and over doors. The customer will notice quite a difference with these new doors, Hörmann sectional doors are fully insulated and with the garage being part of the house, it will help with retaining heat and due to the doors having a sturdy rubber seal on the bottom, the doors seal to the floor nicely. There are no gaps around the doors, so no more leaves and weather blowing under them.

The old doors and materials removed are recycled and disposed of responsibly by us. As you can see by the pictures. Once we have an empty brickwork opening, we can then install the frame and track system to the door, taking care that everything is level and plumb etc. We have lots of experience fitting these doors and know how to set them up just right.

Finally the panels are inserted and motors fitted. We also use uPVC trims around the door to frame it neatly and seal the job in a suitable colour of sealant. Other feature of these doors include a safety system which will kick in as soon as the door touches an obstacle, the door will simply stop and reverse. There is a light in the operator which will light up while the door is in use and stay on for a couple of minutes to provide some light in the garage. Two remotes are supplied as standard.

We recommend a yearly service on most doors we install, this is more important on automatic doors. We offer an affordable service that includes fixings being checked and components cleaned and lubricated on the door, which all helps to keep spring balance and operators from coming under strain. We clean the door too and find it keeps doors just like new for years to come.

Select, Gisburn style doors, Glossop

Select, Gisburn style, side hinge doors, Glossop

Recently installed by ourselves for a customer in Glossop, Derbyshire. These side hinged doors add a nice contrast to the colours on the house and are a practical solution for customers that require this type of door.

Side hinge doors are available in many different colours and styles. This style is known as the Gisburn and has an off centre split. You can also have the doors split in the middle or with the smaller door on either side, like this one. Unlike older style side hinge doors, these doors come in their own steel frames, which means there are no gaps to tamper with the door. The locking system on these Select doors is very secure and simple to operate. The hinges and hardware is very solid and tamper proof.

As with all our installations, we start by removing the old door and the old timber frame, then clean up the openings of any old sealant etc. All the old materials are removed from site by us and recycled appropriately. We can then start to carefully get the doors into position and get them central and level. This type of door usually gets installed on top of an aluminium floor threshold that bonds to the floor and allows for the minimum gap under the door.

After installing the doors. We added uPVC trims to the frame to neatly frame the job in matching white trims. Then we neatly seal up to the brickwork using a colour the blends in nicely (as shown in the close-up pic). All our jobs are left nice and tidy too.

Hörmann Rollmatic T, Appleton, Warrington

Hörmann Rollmatic T, Appleton, Warrington

We cover a wide area in the North West and this was a recent installation we did in the lovely area of Appleton in Warrington. The type of door chosen by the customer, is a pair of fully automatic Hörmann Rollmatic T roller doors.

The old doors had become awkward to use and these new roller doors look nice with the brickwork garage and are much easier to operate. As usual, we start by removing the old doors and their timber frames, we can the clean up the brickwork openings ready to install the new doors. Roller doors come in their own frames made from sturdy aluminium. The framework is installed first, then the door curtain can be added and the control box wired in. We always do our best to keep our installations neat and tidy.

Hörmann Rollmatic T roller doors have many benefits, they are operated at the simple touch of a button courtesy of the two remotes provided as standard. The doors are fully insulated and will help if the door leads into the house or there are rooms above etc. Security is also very good on these doors. There is an in built safety system should the door come into contact with an obstacle, it will stop and reverse.

On this job to finish it off nicely, we lined the brickwork opening with matching black uPVC. We find when we remove old door that the brickwork can be a bit unsightly. So this creates a nice boxed in look. We then carefully seal up the uPVC etc. We always leave our installations nice and tidy too. We pride ourselves on our work and think our customers should enjoy their new doors without worrying about tidying up.

If you would like to see more information on this type of garage door, you can view the brochure here.

Hörmann sectional door, Stalybridge

Hörmann sectional door, Stalybridge

We recently installed this gorgeous Hörmann sectional, automatic garage door for a customer in our local area of Stalybridge. The door was chosen in a golden oak colour with a woodgrain pattern to match the doors and windows on the house.

The previous garage door that we removed was a traditional pair of side hinged doors. This new top-of-the-range door is fully automatic and is much easier to operate, at just the touch of a button and has many benefits. The door is fully insulated, meaning the house will stay warmer due to the garage having rooms adjoining it. We hear good feedback from customers when we return to service their doors that this is indeed the case regarding insulation.

The door has seals all around and comes in its own framework. The bottom of the door has a sturdy rubber seal that seals nicely to the floor. Good quality security is another feature that the Hörmann sectional has. There are no gaps to tamper with the door and they cannot be forced open. The door comes with two remote controls as standard, but extra remotes or internal push buttons are available. The operator also features an integral light which will stay on for a couple of minutes when the door is in use, to help illuminate your garage. There is an in built safety system that will stop and reverse should the door come into contact an obstacle.

As you can see from the pictures. After we removed the old door we could start to clean up the brickwork of old sealants and paint. Then we start building up the framework. You can view a demo of how sectional doors work in our virtual showroom. The panels are added last and the front is finished off with matching uPVC trims to make the nice archway above the door and around it, then the job is neatly sealed up.

Carteck side hinged doors, Halifax

Carteck side hinged doors, Halifax

We recently installed this pair of side hinged garage doors for a customer in Halifax, West Yorkshire. Chosen in anthracite grey to match the windows and door on the house. The doors are made by Carteck and fitted by ourselves at Pennine Garage Doors.

Side hinged doors have come a long way since the old timber type that would swell and rot over time. These Carteck doors and the frames are made from sturdy aluminium. The panels are insulated between the aluminium too which creates a solid barrier to weather and helps to keep the house warm. The doors are installed onto an aluminium floor threshold, which means the gaps around the door are kept to a minimum.

There are many neat features on these doors, such as easy to use door stays to keep the doors open when in use, the windows are a scratch reistant polymer material and the handle is high grade stainless steel. Carteck side hinged doors feature a multi-point locking system, giving the doors high security for peace of mind and they close with a reassuring clunk. The hinges are also made to be tamper proof and of high quality.

We take great care when installing our garage doors. This installation was neatly finished off with a matching trim across the top and then we used a cement based sealant in a tube to point in the sides where the stonework is. We find this gives a nice finish that matches the pointing on the stonework and doesn’t stand out like silicone sealant would.

Carteck side hinges garage doors can be ordered with the door split in the middle, or off the one side. Available in a wide range of styles, colours and amazing window options (including round ones), these doors are at the top end of quality in side hinge door.
