Hörmann garage door, Denton, Tameside

June 4, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann canopy door, Denton, Tameside

A recent installation of ours for a customer in our local area of Denton, Tameside. The project was to give the garage front a nice new look. The customer chose a nice ruby red, which looks smart in its neat white frame.

The garage door is made by Hörmann and is a manual (canopy) door. There was lots of old timber around the door which we removed until we had a nice brickwork opening. Hörmann canopy doors come in their own steel frames, which provides much greater security that older doors. They new Hörmann door features multi point locking and there are no gaps around the where anyone can tamper with it.

As you can see from the in progress photo, after we had cleaned up the brickwork opening, we could then install the door, first making sure it is level and central etc. We then started by building a timber studding above the door which we could clad over with a nice white uPVC fascia board. The frame is then clad in matching white uPVC and neatly sealed up. We always take pride in our finishing touches and we use masking tape to create nice neat lines.

When we install any manual doors, we always set the spring tension up so that the door does most of the work themselves, making them very easy to use. Garage doors do loose spring tension over time and we provide many of our customers with an affordable annual service, where the spring tension is checked as well as all components. We also lubricate necessary parts and the door gets cleaned. We find it helps to keep you new door working and looking like new.

If you would like to see the full range of Hörmann canopy doors, you can view the brochure here. There are many styles and colours to suit any home.

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.

Hörmann Georgian door, Hadfield, Derbyshire

Derbyshire

Hörmann canopy door, Hadfield, Derbyshire

A lovely recent installation of a Hörmann, Georgian style, canopy (manual) garage door for a customer in Hadfield, Derbyshire. Chosen in black to match the front door and framed in white, which helps to add some contrast to the whole look of the house.

As you can see by the "before" picture, the old door had become a bit tired looking and was getting harder to use, so a new Hörmann door will be much easier to use and adds the final touch to the front of the house. The old door is always removed from site and usually recycled responsibly, the old timber frame and studding above the door was also removed.

This garage opening is quite tall, so a new sturdy studding above the door was built to hold the new plain white uPVC flatboard, which looks smarted than having ridges in the cladding and is also easier to clean. As you can see from the photos, the door is installed first and then we build the studding and final clad the job in uPVC. The products we use are all high quality materials which will not discolour over time.

The garage door is always set up so that the spring is nicely balanced and easy to operate. A manual canopy door should open and close quite easily, doing most of the lifting itself. We can service your garage too periodically to help maintain the spring tension, as well as lubricating and cleaning your door. We find it keeps your garage door working and looking like new.

Hörmann canopy garage doors are much more secure than older style doors. They feature a solid multi point locking system which can also be upgraded to have more latches and locking points. Another good feature is that when the door is in the fully open position, the door gently locks into spring clips that help the door to not drop down if it is windy for example.

Hörmann vertical style doors, Dukinfield

April 12, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

 

Hörmann vertical rib doors, Dukinfield, Tameside

A recent project by the Pennine Garage Doors team to renovate a pair of garages in our local area of Dukinfield, Tameside. The doors are made by Hörmann and were ordered in a vertical rib style, which is in our entry range of prices. Both doors are manually operated, although this type of door can be automated too.

The customer decided to have the face of the apex clad in matching white uPVC too, which was finished with edging trims and sealed up neatly. We have done many renovations on garages over the years and we are always happy to help with giving customers options in what we can do to help maintain the look and function of your garage. Often the old garage doors have become hard to use and can look a bit tired too. These garages have been given a nice facelift in terms of appearance and also in function.

Our manual (canopy) garage doors are always installed with care and attention, so that the spring system is nicely balanced etc. This means the door can open effortlessly and will do most of the lifting itself, unlike springs on old doors that become stretched and a strain to operate them. Hörmann canopy doors are also very secure and feature more locking points that most older doors. They are made from steel and come in many gorgeous styles and colours to suit any home. Below is a series of photos that show the progress of the job.

All of the materials that were removed from the old installation, such as the old doors and any timber etc are all removed from site and the whole job is always left nice and tidy for all of our customers.

If you would like to see more styles and choices within this product range, you can view the brochure here (links open in new windows).

Hörmann garage door, Hyde

February 26, 2022 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hyde

Hörmann canopy door, Hyde, Tameside

Here is a nice new Hörmann garage door installed for a customer in Hyde, Tameside. The vertical rib style of door is one of our entry level doors but provide the same quality that you would expect from your new garage door installation.

As you can see from the "before" picture, the old side hinge doors were a little bit old and the security of the garage was compromised. All new Hörmann canopy (manual) doors have good security features, unlike many older style doors. The lock is sturdy and there are no gaps around the door to tamper with. The locking bars also engage in multiple places instead of just one latch for instance with older doors. Additional locking bars can be added as optional too, for further peace of mind. Meaning that the door will lock in all four corners.

As per usual, we remove all the old timber from a garage opening, including the door and frame. We would never secure a door to rotting timber and any timber we replace is carefully fixed leaving a small gap with the floor. This means the timber will not soak up water and gradually rot from the bottom (something we see a lot).

Hörmann canopy doors come in their own steel frame, which on this installation we also clad around the door in white uPVC to give the job a nice framed look and to also keep the door size to a standard size. The whole job was sealed up neatly too. The door opens much easier than the old one did. Hörmann manual doors pretty much open most of the way by themselves, there is very little effort required. When the door is pushed into a fully open position, there are also spring loaded clips that will help the door to stay open and not drop down if it is windy for instance.

Hörmann canopy doors come in a wide range of colours and gorgeous finishes to suit any home. For a closer look at this product, you can view the brochure here.

Please feel free to contact us for any inquiries or help you may need in choosing the right door for your home. We are always happy to help and provide you with a free quote and survey.
