Hörmann Rollmatic T, Stalybridge

Hörmann Rollmatic T in red, Stalybridge

A recently installed automatic roller door for a customer in our local area of Stalybridge, Tameside. Made by Hörmann and chosen in a nice warm red to compliment the front door, they add a nice splash of colour to the house.

As usual, our first task is to safely remove the old door and any timber framework, the Hörmann Rollmatic T comes in its own aluminium frame which is a very sturdy design. The frame is also where the tracks are for the door to run up and down. Our customers are loving the ease of use of these doors and their many quality features.

Unlike an old manual door, an automatic roller door requires no gaps around it on underneath. They have a rubber seal on the bottom of the door that seals nicely to the floor. As well as being insulated, they also feature a safety system that will not let the door crush anything during its operation. If the door touches an obstacle, it will stop and reverse.

There is no kick-out to roller doors either, unlike an up-and-over door, which means you can park a vehicle close to it. Or if you park your car in your garage, you no longer have to get out of the car to open the door, you can simply use one of the two remote controls to operate the door and drive straight in. There is a light on the internal control panel that will also light up when the door is in use and it stays lit for a couple of minutes too.

The Hörmann Rollmatic T also saves space in your garage by not having internal track systems etc. The curtain neatly rolls up above the door. They are a good solution to awkward sizes of openings too. Most doors and openings are standard sizes, meaning you would need to order a custom size of door. With roller doors, they are all supplied to the exact size requirments as standard. We finished the installation off with our usual care and attention, by framing it in matching uPVC and then neatly sealing up the job to the brickwork.

The Hörmann Rollmatic T is available in a wide range of colours and woodgrain finishes. For a closer look at this product, you can view the brochure here.

AlluGuard roller door, Stalybridge

Alluguard automatic roller door, Stalybridge

We recently installed this roller door for a customer in Stalybridge, Tameside. Made by AlluGuard, these doors are fully insulated, which will keep the rooms above the garage warmer in the winter.

Chosen in a modern anthracite grey colour to match the front door, this garage door is fully automatic and simple to use. This door is a "compact" type, which is handy if there isn't as much height as usual, a compact roller door is designed so that the roll doesn't take up too much space when rolled up. With cars getting taller, we find customers are often looking to gain height and width to their garage door openings. We offer solutions for such situations.

We always dispose of your old garage door for you, they are recycled responsibly. We then tidy up the brickwork opening of any old sealant. We can then fit your new door with our usual care and attention to detail. This door was finished off by framing the door in matching anthracite uPVC. Which looks nice and is easy to clean.

The door featured its own integral alarm, which is reliable and will only sound if the door is forced. It comes with two remote controls as standard. We can also provide an emergency way to open the door if you have no other door access into the garage.

Roller doors are very popular. They are secure, insulated, automated and come in a variety of colours including wood grain. For a closer look, please feel free to browse the AlluGuard brochure here. You can also contact us to arrange a free survey.

Select side hinge door, Stalybridge

Select side hinge garage door, Stalybridge

Have a look at this lovely conversion of a garage that was recently renovated by our team. The side hinge door is made by Select, with matching uPVC in white.

We have done many garage renovations over the years, we can suppy and fit new windows for your garage too and personnel doors if required. We pride ourselves in our finishing and don't like to cut corners by cladding over rotten timber etc.

This job first required lots of removal of old cladding and the old doors. We could then get to work rebuilding a solid structure for the door to fit to and also clad around it in uPVC. We think you'll agree that it has made quite a difference. It is now sealed from the weather and much more secure. Select garage doors feature a solid locking mechanism that provides peace of mind for security.

Side hinge doors can be configured to suit your requirements. They can be split in the middle (like this one), or you can have one smaller door and one larger, on either side.

Hörmann doors, Mottram Rise, Stalybridge

Hörmann elegance doors, Mottram Rise.

We recently installed this pair of classic looking garage doors for a customer on the Mottram Rise estate in Stalybridge, an area where we have many happy customers. The door style is known as the Elegance and the doors were chosen in a rosewood colour to match the house.

We started, as always, buy removing the old white doors and their timber frames. We could then clean up the brickwork openings of old sealants and mortar any gaps left by the old timber pads. The new Hörmann doors come in their own steel frames, the next step is to lift the door and frame and place it in the opening. The doors is wedged in place while we set the ideal position of it, making sure the unit is both level and plumb and also minimising the gap under the door if the floor is slightly out of level (doors need to be fitted level).

Once we are happy with the final position, we can start fixing the whole unite to the brickwork on the inside of the garage using fixings and brackets supplied with the doors. We can also start to clad the outside of the framework in matching uPVC. These doors had painted arches above that we also created uPVC arches for and everything was sealed in a rosewood sealant.

We think you'll agree, the doors look nice in place with the modern Elegance design keeping a subtle but classic look. The door handles on these Hörmann doors were also upgraded. Instead of the standard black handles you can order metal handles to suit the hardware on your front door. Such as lovely brushed steel etc.

If you would like to know more about Hörmann canopy doors and would like to see the full range of styles, colours and options, please feel free to browse the brochure. You can contact us for any advice and to arrange a free survey, we are always happy to help.

AlluGuard roller doors, Stalybridge

April 21, 2018 by Pennine Garage Doors

AlluGuard roller doors in golden oak. Stalybridge.

These AlluGuard automatic roller doors were recently installed by us for a customer in Stalybridge. They were to replace two old white manual doors that didn't match the new windows and doors on the property, that are a golden oak colour.

AlluGuard roller doors can be ordered in a range of colours including wood grain, to suit any home. The golden oak doors shown here for example are a match for the golden oak windows, doors and uPVC. We also used uPVC trims and fascias around these doors to frame them neatly.

There are many benefits to AlluGuard doors. As well as being automatic and easy to operate, they are insulated and provide a seal to the floor (if the floor is reasonably level), this is good if the doors lead into the house or if there is a room above the garage. The doors also feature a built in alarm as standard, which is very loud indeed and will only trigger if the door is tampered with, the alarm never needs setting, it just works as part of the Somfy automation system.

AlluGuard roller garage doors conform to Police Preferred Specification for your peace of mind. If you would like more information, please contact us for a free survey.

You can also take a look at the video below, which shows the product in more detail.
