Hörmann Georgian garage door, Marple

March 15, 2019 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann Georgian door. Marple, Stockport.

Installation of a Hörmann Georgian style garage door for a customer in Marple, Stockport. Chosen in white, this is a manual up-and-over door that is a popular choice with our customers.

The old doors we removed were a pair of wooden side hinged doors that had become worn and awkward to use. The customer had just moved into the house and this door is a great addition to their new home. We were even complimented by neighbors after fitting the door. We take pride in our work and it's nice when people notice.

Hömann canopy doors are very solid steel doors that operate manually with ease. They are also available as automated doors if there is room inside the garage for the operator etc. Extra locking points can be added to the door at a small cost, but even with standard locking points, these doors are very secure.

The powder coated paint finish on this white door is durable and UV stable, so it won't fade or go yellow over time, like some of the cheaper doors out there. We will not sell or install any products that don't meet a certain standard we expect.

The "work in progress" photo shows the door wedged into place after being set out nice and level and central in the opening of where we needed to fit it. The door is then fixed on the inside to the brickwork using solid brackets and fixing that are supplied with the door.

The outside can then be trimmed around the frame with matching uPVC trims and fascia board. The whole job is then neatly sealed up, which we always do using masking tape to leave a nice tidy line. This job was sealed in a rosewood colour which won't look dirty over time like white sealant can.

Hörmann Finesse, Hollingworth, Tameside

Hörmann Finesse door. Hollingworth, Tameside

A recently installed Hörmann Finesse style garage door, fitted for a customer in Hollingworth, near Glossop. Chosen in white with matching white frame.

The "finesse" style garage door is one of Hörmann's more recent door designs. It is a very modern looking door with a simple elegant look. It is a steel door and comes in its own steel frame. It features a highly secure lock system which can be upgraded at a small cost to feature more locking points.

These doors are easy to operate, secure and have a long lasting powder coated paint finish that will not fade or change colour over the years, as some cheaper garage doors tend to do.

This door is manually operated, but these same doors can be installed as remote control doors if there is space in the garage for that type of system. We are always happy to advise customers on suitable products for your garages. Garages are often standard sizes, but where there may be issues with space, we can usually help you with a solution.

This garage door was finished off neatly with white uPVC trims around the frame, we then sealed the job with our usual method of masking off the frame near the brickwork to get a nice neat line of sealant (shown in close-up picture).

Hörmann vertical garage door, Tintwistle

December 13, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann vertical ribbed door, Tintwistle, Derbyshire.

We installed this Hörmann garage door in the lovely scenic area of Tintwistle near Glossop. The customer wanted the door to match a specific colour that had been used on their home.

Due to the nature of the colour, we had a standard white door sprayed by a specialist to match the exact shade of green. It's a colour similar to "heritage green" and as you can tell, the paint job is superb. It is not very often we have to get a door sprayed ourselves, but we trust the company we use to do a really nice job.

We had the uPVC trims sprayed to match the door too. Due to the difference in materials of the door and trims, paint was mixed match both perfectly. The customer was left with spare trims, should they need to be ever replaced due to damage, and also spare touch-up paint.

The door is a manual up-and-over garage door, which we setup to operate with ease. These Hörmann doors are secure and built to last. We also offer a service plan to help maintain any of the doors we install.

Hörmann blue garage door, Tameside

September 8, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann blue garage door, Tameside.

Recently fitted for a customer in Tameside, this blue Hörmann canopy door looks quite striking and adds a nice splash of colour to this home.

Garage doors come in a range of finishes and colours to suit any house or home. The customer had decided to replace their old door, which was also blue and we finished the look off by framing it in white uPVC to fit in with the look of the house.

Hörmann canopy doors are made of steel and come in their own steel frames. This means that security is much better than old doors that are fitted into timber frames. The finish on the doors is powder coated, very durable and UV stable in the sunlight. We removed the old timber frame from this job, so now there is no painting needed. This new door is simple to maintain with a wipe over every now and then.

The door is also easy to operate. We set up every door we install to operate smoothly and efficiently, whether the door is manually operated or automatic, we install our products with safety in mind and ease of use, as well as making sure it looks fantastic!

If you would like to see the full range of Hörmann canopy doors, please feel free to browse the brochure featuring up-and-over (canopy) doors. You can see a full range of colour and finish options, as well as automation options. You can also contact us to arrange a free survey.

Hörmann Finesse garage door, Failsworth

July 8, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

Hörmann 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.

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.
