Select side hinge doors, Withington

February 8, 2020 by Pennine Garage Doors

Select side hinge door, Withington, Manchester

*NOTE* The faint lines across a couple of pictures is rain and not scratches 🙂

Anyway... This recent project was to upgrade the look and security of a garage in the Withington area of Manchester, an area which has some lovely big old houses. The old doors and cladding were timber and this new classic black look was chosen, we think the choice turned out just nicely.

The Select side hinge door come in its own steel frame and the doors themselves are steel. These doors are very secure, when the handle is turns, two substantial steel rods act as drop bolts and lock into the floor and above the door too. We set the doors up so they are easy to use and they have door stays built in, to hold the door open when in use, to close the door is as simple as pulling the pull chord and closing the door manually.

On this installation we also installed an aluminium threshold to the floor. The door sits on top of the threshold and it is sloped on the front and back edge. This helps to take up any unlevel floor and helps as a barrier below the door. It also frames the job off neatly.

The apex of the garage and around the frame was clad in high quality black uPVC that will not fade with age, then the whole job was sealed up neatly. The look fits into the area nicely and the customer was most pleased with the new look garage and felt safer knowing it was much more secure.

Hörmann vertical rib door, Denton, Tameside

November 23, 2019 by Pennine Garage Doors

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!

Pair of AlluGuard roller doors, Bowdon

December 16, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

Bowdon Cheshire Doors and vanPair of Anthracite AlluGuard roller doors, Bowdon.

This is a recent installation of a pair of AlluGuard roller doors in anthracite grey, on a lovely property in Bowdon, Manchester.

Bowdon Cheshire Doors 3

The customer required a quality product for this nice brick built garage and these roller doors were chosen. The colour was chosen to match features on the house. Alluguard doors come in a wide range of colours and finishes to suit any property and unlike some other door types, can be ordered in non standard sizes without it effecting the cost.

These doors are fully insulated and very secure. Complete with an in-built alarm that will trigger if the door is tampered with and a safety system that will not let the door crush anything or foul up should it contact an object during operation.

Bowdon Cheshire Doors and chimney

Each AlluGuard door comes with two remote controls as standard, there is also a range of optional handy extras such as internal wireless push buttons and the option of an internal box cover that hides the top section of the curtain from the inside of the garage.

We fully finished this job with our usual fine attention to detail and the whole installation was left clean and tidy. Roller doors are becoming more popular as an option for garage doors. They are simple to use and save space inside the garage too.

AlluGuard roller doors, Sale, Manchester

This pair of AlluGuard roller doors was installed for a customer (thanks for all the biscuits!) in Sale, Manchester. Chosen in black to match the features on the house.

Alluguard Sale cars

The project was part of a new garage that was to be the home of the owners lovely vehicles, as you can tell, he is very passionate about motoring. After we had installed the doors, a car ramp was installed to enable the customer to park more vehicles in the space.

We were very careful during this installation to keep things neat and not to mark any of the newly painted walls etc. The doors were ordered with additional back boxes, which are installed internally to protect the curtain when it is rolled up. It also finishes the doors off nicely from the inside.

AlluGuard roller doors are automatic doors that are very simple to use. They come with two remote controls as standard and you can also operate the door from the internal control box. The control box also features an integral alarm which will only trigger if the door is tampered with, plus an internal light that stays on for a short time. The doors also feature a safety system that will stop the door and reverse it, should it come into contact with anything during operation.

Hörmann Finesse garage door, Failsworth

July 8, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hormann Finesse, Failsworth2Hörmann Finnesse door, Failsworth, Manchester

This Finesse style garage door was fitted for a customer in Failsworth after previously completing a job for their next door neighbor (to the left). The customer decided to have a new door and to have all new uPVC fascias and trims to run through with the neighbor.

Hormann Finesse, Failsworth before

The door was installed slightly off centre due to obstacles inside the garage that would effect the door opening, we see this with gas meters and various pipes etc. So the door was fitted slightly to one side. Doing the job this way also meant we could keep the door to a standard size, which also keeps the price of the job down. The infill on the right of the door consists of a sturdy timber studding and was then clad with matching uPVC.

We removed all of the old timber subframe and as usual, we take the old door etc off site to be recycled. The new Hörmann door is much easier to use and provides much better security that the old door and the "Finesse" style of the door looks nice and modern.
