Select side hinge door, Stalybridge

Select side hinge garage door, Stalybridge

Have a look at this lovely conversion of a garage that was recently renovated by our team. The side hinge door is made by Select, with matching uPVC in white.

We have done many garage renovations over the years, we can suppy and fit new windows for your garage too and personnel doors if required. We pride ourselves in our finishing and don't like to cut corners by cladding over rotten timber etc.

This job first required lots of removal of old cladding and the old doors. We could then get to work rebuilding a solid structure for the door to fit to and also clad around it in uPVC. We think you'll agree that it has made quite a difference. It is now sealed from the weather and much more secure. Select garage doors feature a solid locking mechanism that provides peace of mind for security.

Side hinge doors can be configured to suit your requirements. They can be split in the middle (like this one), or you can have one smaller door and one larger, on either side.

A selection of Hörmann RollMatic T doors

Hörmann RollMaticHörmann RollMatic T door, Glossop

Here is a look at the Hörmann RollMatic T automatic roller door on three different homes. All recent installations by Pennine Garage Doors. The first door shown here was fitted for a customer in Glossop, Derbyshire. Chosen in a stunning steel blue to match the front door. We think you'll agree, these doors look great in colours and can give a touch of character to a house.

Hörmann RollMatic

As per usual, all old materials and the old door were removed first, the brickwork cleaned up of old sealants, then the new door carefully installed. This door was framed nicely in white, with white uPVC finishing trims and then neatly sealed up to the brickwork.

The door above was installed for a customer in Rawtenstall, in the Rossendale Valley. Hörmann RollMatic T doors are fully automated, well insulated and very secure. We have feedback from customers who's garages lead into their homes, that they do indeed notice a difference with insulation. They seal nicely to a level floor and do not require gaps, like manual doors do for example.

Another RollMatic T, chosen in a woodgrain finish to match the front door and windows of the house. The neat brickwork on the house really sets this door off well. We also used woodgrain uPVC to line the sides of the brickwork next to the door, to give it a boxed-in look. We always try to work with our customers on what your needs are, whilst also providing advice from our vast experience of fitting garage doors.

Hörmann doors, Mottram Rise, Stalybridge

by

Hörmann elegance doors, Mottram Rise.

We recently installed this pair of classic looking garage doors for a customer on the Mottram Rise estate in Stalybridge, an area where we have many happy customers. The door style is known as the Elegance and the doors were chosen in a rosewood colour to match the house.

We started, as always, buy removing the old white doors and their timber frames. We could then clean up the brickwork openings of old sealants and mortar any gaps left by the old timber pads. The new Hörmann doors come in their own steel frames, the next step is to lift the door and frame and place it in the opening. The doors is wedged in place while we set the ideal position of it, making sure the unit is both level and plumb and also minimising the gap under the door if the floor is slightly out of level (doors need to be fitted level).

Once we are happy with the final position, we can start fixing the whole unite to the brickwork on the inside of the garage using fixings and brackets supplied with the doors. We can also start to clad the outside of the framework in matching uPVC. These doors had painted arches above that we also created uPVC arches for and everything was sealed in a rosewood sealant.

We think you'll agree, the doors look nice in place with the modern Elegance design keeping a subtle but classic look. The door handles on these Hörmann doors were also upgraded. Instead of the standard black handles you can order metal handles to suit the hardware on your front door. Such as lovely brushed steel etc.

Hörmann Elegance door, Dukinfield, Tameside

Hörmann Elegance style door, Dukinfield, Tameside.

A recently installation by the Pennine Garage Doors team of a Hörmann, manual canopy door in anthracite grey. The door was chosen to match the new anthracite windows and front door, as well as replacing the old door which had become awkward to use. The Elegance style with it's simple design is aptly named. As you can see, this is a neat modern design that looks well on most house styles and is available in a wide range of colours and finishes.

Our first task was to remove the old door and the timber frame it was in. This often leaves old paint and sealant on the bricks and a line where the brickwork has aged, which sometimes can be cleaned up, but if not, we use matching uPCV to neatly cover the old brickwork and it boxes in the door nicely (as shown in close up).

The new door comes in its own steel frame, which has many benefits including security (no gaps to tamper with) and the fact it will not require painting like woodwork does. We take care fitting the door so it is nice and level with minimum gap under the door, depending on the floor level (the door has to be level). We can also provide solutions for a rubber weatherstip threshold, which bonds to the floor and will stop drafts and debris from blowing under the door.

We also pay good attention to how the door is setup, such as the spring tension. This means the door is very balanced, easy to use and will not put a strain on any parts. We provide a "door servicing service" where we can take care of your door and its maintenance annually or bi-annually, this helps to maintain your warranty and also keeps your door running smooth and looking smart (we clean it too!)

Please feel free to contact us for any enquiries you have or to arrange a free survey and quote. You can find more information on this type of door in the Hörmann brochure.

Hörmann vertical rib door, Denton, Tameside

by

Hörmann vertical rib door, Denton, Tameside.

A recently installed up-and-over (canopy) garage door for a customer in our local Denton area. Chosen in a vertical rib style, in white, this type of door is often our entry level in terms of price. These doors do not compromise on quality though. Hörmann are one of the leaders in garage door technology, these German made doors and built to last and installed by our team with care to make it a great addition to your home.

The old door and timber frame were removed first on this job, so we are left with a brickwork opening, which is cleaned up and then the new door lifted into place. The steel door and frame are integral, which not only eliminated the need of a timber frame, but is also a big security improvement on old door types. Before we could fit the door on this job however, we needed some attention to the floor level.

As you might notice from the pictures. The floor is quite a lot out of level and the door has to be fitted "level". Normally if the floor is just a little out of level (most are) that is acceptable and it just means a varying gap under the door, we can also fit a rubber weatherstrip for the door to close against to take up these small amounts of gaps. This floor needed something a bit different though and we installed an aluminium floor threshold, which the door sits on top of and then the underneath gets filled in with a very stiff mix of mortar to take up the difference in floor level. Without digging lots of the floor and drive up and turning the whole thing into a huge job, this is an option we have for our customers.

Once the door was in place, level and plumb, we could then fix it into place and finish the outside off in white uPVC. A new steel lintel had to be also put in place before the job could be done, so we neatly covered that with a soffit and fascia board and also lined the internal walls to cover up the old stained brickwork where the previous frame was. This creates a nice boxed in look to the door and is very simple to clean with just warm, soapy water. No more painting required!
