Hörmann RollMatic T in Hadfield

Pair of Hörmann RollMatic T doors, Hadfield

Our team at Pennine Garage Doors recently installed this pair of fully automatic Hörmann RollMatic T garage doors for a customer in Hadfield, Glossop. The doors were chosen in a rosewood woodgrain colour and looked quite stunning along with the neat new driveway.

The old doors that were replaced were manual doors that had become a struggle to use. These new automatic doors will be a welcome addition to this home. Our customers often tell us that an automated garage door is one of the best things they've bought for their house! We offer a service plan to help maintain some of our doors and we are always glad to hear feedback over time when re-visiting our valued customers.

You can see in the close-up photo how the control box for the doors is installed just inside the garage. This is done neatly with tidy cabling. You can use the control box to operate the door, as well as having remote controls that come with door. You can also see how we lined the brickwork with white uPVC trims, which helps to frame the doors and give a fresh, clean look. If the whole installation was in rosewood, it would possibly look too dark.

As usual, all of the old doors and timber frames are taken away by ourselves and recycled or disposed of in a responsible manner. You can also see by the pictures just how tidy we like to leave our jobs too.

If you would like any help with choosing a door, you can contact us to arrange a free (covid safe) survey.

Hörmann RollMatic T, Dukinfield

Hörmann RollMatic T roller door, Dukinfield

We recently installed this Hörmann RollMatic T automatic roller door for a customer in Dukinfield. Chosen in a brown colour to match the features of the house. The RollMatic range of doors is also available in a wide range of colours, as well as wood grain finishes that will suit any home.

Each of this type of garage door is made to measure. This means we can install the door with as much width and height as required by the customer. We tend to find that width is sometimes an issue when fitting certain vehicles in a garage. Old door often have mechanisms that take up valuable width space. So the RollMatic T is great at giving you the side room you need due to the neat framing system. Opening vertically with no kick-out also means you can park a vehicle close to the door on the outside of the garage too.

As with every garage door we fit, the old garage door and any timber frames are removed from site and disposed of responsibly by ourselves. All of our automatic doors feature safety systems that do not allow the door to crush anything. They will simply stall and reverse if coming into contact with an object. We also provide periodic garage door service calls to maintain and test the door and safety systems etc.

This installation required an emergency release mechanism fitted. This is when there is no other access to the garage other than the garage door. Should a power failure occur, the customer can simply use a lock on the front of door to release a lock-barrel and gain access to a manual crank system that can be used to open and close the door manually. Once the power is back on, the door will continue to work as it did before.

Hörmann doors, Mottram Rise, Stalybridge

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

January 16, 2020 by Pennine Garage Doors

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.
