For these reasons, we only install high-quality garage doors. The rationale for this is straightforward. They last longer and provide better long-term value compared to low-cost suppliers that cut ‘design and manufacturing’ corners. It’s also worth bearing in mind that the built-in high standards we readily promote can save you money in the long run. Proven experience of supplying and fitting garage doors since 1975 has shown that the cheapest isn’t always the best but the best value (not always the most expensive) can provide the greatest cost-benefit! That’s why we’ll always advise you to look at value before price. After-all garage doors are a relatively important purchase for your home, so helping you to make your investment go further is essential. It’s reason enough for us to be confident in offering you a 5-year workmanship guarantee and product warranties up to 10 years.

Door prices can vary based on multiple factors, including:
Size: A larger garage door will have a higher price due to the increased amount of materials required for its construction.
Material: Garage doors are typically made of steel, aluminium, wood, or GRP. Steel is the most affordable option, making it ideal for homeowners on a tight budget. Aluminium and GRP are slightly more expensive, while natural wood is the priciest choice. Some are supplied as insulated doors.
Design: The design of the garage door can also affect its price. Garage doors with intricate patterns or windows will generally cost more than those with simpler designs.
Operation Method: Manual garage doors are generally cheaper than electric ones. While electric garage doors offer convenience, they require a motor and wiring, which adds to the overall cost.
Installation: The installation cost can vary depending on the location of the garage door and the complexity of the fitting process.
Brand: Some garage door brands are more expensive than others due to the higher quality of materials and construction they use.
