Hörmann sectional doors, Glossop

October 29, 2023 by Pennine Garage Doors

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.

Hörmann Finesse style door, Glossop

November 13, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann Finesse style garage door, Glossop

Recently installed by our team for a customer in Glossop, Derbyshire. This Hörmann garage door has given the house a fresh modern look. The style of door is known as the “Finesse”, it is a manual canopy door chosen in white with matching uPVC fascia and trims.

As you can see from the “old door” photograph, the previous garage door was crooked in its frame and had become awkward to use. We started by removing the old door and then the timber frame and studding above the door. We are then left with a brickwork opening that we clean up of old sealants and paint, then we can lift the new door into place. We take the time to get the door nice and central and level and then we can fix it into place.

When the door is in it’s final position, we then made a sturdy timber studding to go above the door which the new fascia board covers. You can see how we take pride with our finishing trims and sealing the job neatly to the brickwork. New Hörmann doors come in their own steel frames, so they do not require a timber subframe. Which means no more rotting timbers or painting of wood. It is also good for security because there are no gaps around the door to tamper with.

Security is very good on these doors, the doors come as standard with two sturdy latch points, another two latches can be added as extra. The finish on the doors is very tough and UV stable, meaning it won’t fade in colour over the years. We offer a service plan for customers, which involves an annual service on the door and thorough clean. This helps to meet the manufacturer recommended maintenance and keeps your door working and looking like new.

Hörmann manual canopy doors come in a wide range of styles and colours to suit any home. If you would like to see more about this product, you can view the brochure here.

Feel free to contact us to arrange a free survey and quote, we are always happy to help or advise you in choosing the right door for your home.

Hörmann Rollmatic T, Glossop, Derbyshire

October 30, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann Rollmatic T, Glossop

Here is a recent installation by our team of a Hörmann Rollmatic T, fully automatic roller door for a customer in Glossop, Derbyshire. Chosen in black with a white frame to complement other features on the house.

The door we removed was an old up-and-over style manual door, so the customer was thrilled to not have to struggle opening and closing their garage door. Now they can just press a button on one of the remote controls that come with the door. Our customers who have made the choice of an automatic door over a manual one, often tell us that it is one of the best things they have bought.

We first removed the old door from it’s timber frame. The timber was still solid and structural. This allowed us to fit the door to this frame, which we then neatly clad in white uPVC to give it a nice clean look and also to protect the timber. We always take great care with our installations, from installing the door and making sure everything is level and central etc, to our finishing touches and always leaving our customers homes neat and tidy. We like you to see your new door and enjoy it without having to sweep up any mess etc. Nobody likes messy tradesmen.

Hörmann Rollmatic T doors are very secure and are well insulated, which makes a big difference if your garage leads into your house, or if you have rooms above. They come in a wide range of colours and the finish is very long lasting and UV stable. The door comes with two remotes as standard and features an internal control box with a light that will stay on for a few minutes after the door is used.

Hörmann is a world leader in garage doors and we install many of their products and have had a good relationship for many years.

Garage door servicing and repairs

June 6, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Garage door servicing and repairs

Here at Pennine Garage Doors, as well as installing your garage door for you, we also provide our customers with garage door servicing and maintenance, as well as repairs. We are committed to after-sales, as we know it’s important for customers that they can contact us if any problems arise.

All of the garage door types we supply and install are of high quality, we will not deal in products that are known to fade in colour over time for instance. We offer a wide range of doors from simple manual types, to large automated, insulated doors. As most doors are mechanical by nature, they do require a certain amount of maintenance to keep them working smoothly and looking smart on your home.

Most manufacturers also stipulate that to honour the warranty on the door, that it will require periodic servicing, this is important on automatic doors. That is why we offer all of our customers an affordable annual service to keep your door working smoothly and looking like new. Prices depend on door type, but we keep our service call prices as low as we can for you.

Whether it is a manual up and over door, a roller door, or a highly secure sectional door, regular servicing keeps all parts of the door working in harmony. This avoids wear and tear and saves potential costs in the future.

Below are examples of what work is carried out on different door types. The whole installation and fixings are all checked/tightened on any service and the door washed and cleaned, we also clean any surrounding uPVC:

Manual up and over doors benefit from having the spring tension adjusted yearly, as springs lose a bit of tension over time, we adjust them so that they open with ease and don’t put strain on other parts. There are also multiple oiling points and tweaks to latches etc. It will keep the door doing most of the work itself while opening and closing, correct spring tension also helps to keep the door safely in its open position if windy.

Automatic roller door manufacturers require safety systems to be inspected and we also inspect alarms if featured on the door. The safety edge batteries are replaced, which is important to keep the door working safely. Rollers are adjusted and lubricated and we also change any remote control batteries. Then we clean the whole door, including in between the laths where dirt might gather.

Automatic sectional doors benefit hugely from regular services. The operator on these types of doors actually weighs the door and spring tension when initially setup. If spring tension is not added over time, the operator is pulling more than it should and could wear out over time. So we often tweak the spring tension and send the operator through its “learning” phase after the door is serviced, keeping it nicely balanced. We find that weather effects subtle settings and we adjust the rollers etc so they are not too tight in the tracks. All of the tracks are cleaned too and various parts lubricated lightly with engine oil. This keeps the door and parts working smoothly and quietly. Safety tests are also carried out and remote batteries renewed.

You can see by the “before and after” photos just how well doors and the surrounding uPVC will clean up. We spend a good hour or more on a typical door to service and clean it properly.

Our service customers also benefit from discounts and savings on any repairs if required in the future. We offer a repair service on doors we have fitted or have been fitted by someone else. We realise that people need access to cars and other items in their garage and will help as soon as we can.

Please get in touch if you would like to know more, or to arrange for your door to be serviced. We are always happy to help.

Hörmann garage door, Glossop, Derbyshire

May 11, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann elegance garage door, Glossop, Derbyshire

Recently installed for a customer in Glossop, this garage door looks stunning on the house. The door is made by Hörmann and was chosen in anthracite grey (RAL 7016) in a white frame to match the front door.

The style of door is called the “elegance”, it is a canopy (manual) door and is one of the newer styles of Hörmann garage doors. It is made from steel and is very durable and secure. As with all of our installations, our first task was to remove the old door which had become harder to use and worn. We also remove any old timber frame and then clean up the stone or brickwork opening of old sealants. All materials are disposed of responsibly and recycled where possible.

When we install any of doors, we always set them up so they are nicely balanced and easy to use. This means that not only is the door easy to use, it is also not putting unnecessary strain on any parts. A manual, canopy door should do most of the lifting itself and open with ease. We also service garage doors, most customers have a yearly service to help keep the door nicely balance and thoroughly cleaned to keep it looking and working like new.

As you can see by the close-up photographs, after fitting the door, we neatly clad around it with white uPVC and seal up in an appropriate colour of sealant, we pay attention to detail with our finishing touches and our customers are very happy with the results when finished. We always leave things nice and tidy too, which we know means a lot to people having work done on their homes.

If you would like to see the full range of styles and colours available for this type of Hörmann garage door, you can view the brochure here. With styles and colour options to match any home.

Please feel free to contact us for a free survey and quotation. We are always happy to help you with choosing your door.
