Hörmann sectional garage door, Runcorn

This is a door we installed for a customer in Runcorn, Cheshire. A Hörmann sectional garage door was chosen in white, which is a very sleek looking door and looks lovely in this brick opening.

A sectional door is one of the highest quality doors we install for customers. They consist of four panels that are hinged, the door opens straight up and requires no kick-out, meaning a vehicle can be parked close to the door. Hörmann sectional doors are very secure and are also fully insulated, which helps to keep the house warm if the garage leads into the house.

The door is fully automated and can be operated by simply pressing a button on one of the two remote controls that are supplied with the door, you can also use the control panel on the garage door operating system too. The operator features a light, that will come on when the door is operated and stays on for a short time to help illuminate the garage.

All automated doors we install all feature safety systems that are built in to prevent the door damaging anything whilst in operation. If the door meets any obstacles, it will stop and reverse. We offer a very affordable service plan to help look after your door too. We check the whole installation and fixings, safety systems, replacing any batteries in remotes and lubricating and cleaning the door, which helps to keep the door looking and working like new.

With this installation, all of the old materials and previous door were removed from site and everything left tidy as always. We also clad around the door with matching uPVC trims and fascia to bring the whole job together.

Hörmann sectional garage door, Droylsden.

Check out this nice picture of this Hörmann sectional door for a customer in Droylsden. It actually looks like a Summer day (it isn't).

Sectional door are a "top of the range" product. They tick all the boxes in terms of security, insulation and looks. Available in a wide range of flat colours, as well as decograin wood effects, like this one in rosewood. The finish is durable and easy to clean.

The door is made up of four horizontal panels that are linked by hinges. The door opens straight upwards and then into the garage, meaning you can park a vehicle close to the door, as there is no kickout. The door seals to the floor with a sturdy rubber seal, which helps keep the weather out and leaves no gaps like a manual door has.

We have great feedback from customers who have had one of these garage doors installed, they all say it's one of the best things they've bought. Especially if the garage leads into the house and there are rooms adjoining. We are told they provide excellent insulation to rooms that were once hard to keep warm.

The remote control system is also by Hörmann and comes with two remote controls as standard. The Supramatic operator is more than capable of lifting double doors. When we install any of our doors, we always set them up so they are nicely balanced by the springs etc, meaning the operator is not overworking. We offer an affordable service plan to look after your door once a year or so. Including full inspection of all fixings, lubrication and cleaning of the whole door, plus any tweaks to keep it running smooth.

Teckentrup sectional door, Heswall, Wirral

Teckentrup sectional door, Heswall, Wirral.

A recent installation of a Teckentrup sectional garage door for a customer in Heswall, Wirral. Sectional garage doors are amongst the finest garage doors available. This garage door was chosen in a white silk grain finish, which will stay looking nice for many years.

Our first task was the removal of the old door and timber frame. We could then clean up the brickwork of old sealants and start to plan where exactly to fit the new door within the opening. We then fixed two sturdy timbers to the brickwork for the door to be installed to. These timbers were sat off the ground by about 30mm to avoid any damp being soaked up.

We could then start to install the main framework of the door and interior track and spring systems. The tracks are supported by a number of well placed sturdy fixing points into ceiling joists and the rear of the tracks are fixed to the walls. When everything is in place, the weight and load of the door is nicely spread evenly over these fixing points.

The automation system is installed, then the panels are carefully lifted into place and the rollers and hinges are all connected. The door can then be attached to the spring system and the motor, which goes through a sequence of balancing and weighing the door to provide optimum motor operation.

While this is being done, we are also finishing off the outside of the door. The door sits behind the timber frame, we clad this frame in white (uv stable) uPVC. This gives a nice feature to the installation and helps to avoid the whole thing looking too flat. The job is then sealed up in a suitable colour, on this brickwork, we chose a buff colour (see closeup pic). We know how much people love their homes and we take pride in our work.

This door will provide many benefits over the old door. Teckentrup sectional doors are of the highest standards in door technology. The panels are fully insulated and the door seals neatly to the floor with no gaps, unlike most up and over doors require. Customers who's garage lead into their house tell us that it makes a big difference after having an insulated garage door. The door is simple to use, with just the press of a button, the door will open/close and a temporary light on the operator with illuminate the area for a couple of minutes.

Hörmann sectional door, Diggle, Oldham

Hörmann sectional door, Diggle, Oldham

A recent installation by our team of a Hörmann sectional, automatic garage door for a customer in Diggle, Oldham. The door was chosen in white silk grain finish, with a black frame to compliment the front door colours. We had some nice weather and lovely views on this job too 🙂

We started by removing the old door which had an old garage door operator and was in need of replacing. Unlike the old door, this new Hörmann sectional door is fully insulated. It opens vertically which means a car can be parked close to the door due to it having no kick-out. The door has a heavy duty bottom rubber seal that provides a barrier to the floor to stop any weather and leaves gathering in the garage (a common problem with up and over doors).

After removing the old door and frame, we cleaned up the stonework opening and could then start to build up the framework and tracks of the new sectional door. Great care is taken so that the frame and tracks are all level, plumb and fixed securely. When the track system is fitted, we can then install the actual garage door panels and link them to the spring system and operating system.

A Hörman Supramatic automation system was used to power this door, they are highly reliable and very simple to use. All you have to do is push a button on your remote control fob. Other features of this door include a safety system that will stop and reverse if the door comes into contact with anything. This is to avoid any accidents with automated doors. As mentioned, they are insulated and this customer will notice that the room above the door will benefit from this too, for example.

We provide a service plan for any door we fit which will keep your new door and its safety featured maintained on an annual or bi-annual basis, including a full check of all door features, fixings, lubrication and door cleaning. All garage door require a certain amount of attention to keep them running smooth and avoiding stress on parts etc.

Teckentrup sectional door, Padfield, Glossop

by

Teckentrup sectional garage door, Padfield

This elegant looking Teckentrup sectional door was recently fitted for a customer in the lovely area of Padfield, just near Glossop. It is a large, automatic double door in a rosewood finish.

The project was quite a transformation to the garage, which was previously a double garage with two separate doors and a stone pillar in the middle of the opening. Working alongside the builder we use, the brick pillar was taken down and relevant lintels installed so that the opening was suitable for one large automatic door.

We first had to remove all the shuttering that was boarding the opening up, after that we proceeded to install a sturdy timber frame, being careful to keep the legs off the ground, so it won't soak up water and rot at the bottom. This frame was eventually covered neatly in rosewood uPCV and sealed off from the weather.

The Teckentrup sectional door was chosen due to it being able to handle such large garage door opening. These garage doors are of the highest quality and have many handy features, such as being well insulated and closing to the floor, so there is no gap under the door like with an up and over door. They are highly secure and feature an internal light when in use and stays on for a couple of minutes. The system is built to last, and with some simple maintenance will last many years.

As you can see from the pictures, Teckentrup sectional door are usually divided into four panels which are hinged and open into a track system in the garage, the spring system is divided into a number of separate springs to avoid too much tension on them.

We find that customers love these doors once installed. They are a good choice for anyone wanting extra security or looking to keep the house warmer if the garage leads into it, or if there are rooms above. Feedback tells us that these doors do indeed make a difference.
