Choosing a replacement sectional door for a home in Hatfield
Will the opening need work?
Most openings take a sectional door with little preparation. Sometimes old timber subframes, damaged brick returns or an uneven floor need attention first. The survey picks this up so the price does not change on the day.
Can I keep the car in the garage that day?
No. The garage needs to be clear just inside the opening while we work. Everything else can stay.
What can you choose for your Hatfield garage?
- Electric upgradeOperator and remotes.
- Fit behind the openingFor maximum clear width.
- Removal and disposalOld door, frame and springs.
- TrimsTo tidy reveals and the head.
