Building site, Prestbury, Cheshire.

The project involved Pennine Garage Doors fitting four Hormann sandgrain, sectional doors into four seperate garages on this building site in the lovely area of Prestbury. All doors match the same colour grey as the windows, doors and other features on the houses. The job was completed over four days and we had some harsh weather to contend with, including Storm Doris. That didn't stop us from completing the job to our usual high standards though.

Fitting a sectional door starts with assembling and fixing the framework into place, taking care that the frame is "level" and "plumb" so that the door will operate as it should.

We then build up the sectional door panels, fitting rollers and hinges as each one is loaded into place. Rollers are adjusted accordingly for a smooth door operation.

When all of the panels are in place, the door has it's springs connected and locking system or automation system fitted. All four of these doors were fitted with the Hormann manual locking system.

Once complete, any finishing touches like matching UPVC trims are fitted and a complete check of all fixings is carried out.
