Garage Door Prices
Every day we get asked the same question – How much is a standard garage door?
With advances in garage door types, materials, construction methods and operating mechanisms over the last 15 years you can install a garage door to provide a lot more than just a basic steel panel in a timber frame.
The choice of garage doors now is enormous in the UK with manufacturers catering for insulated doors, vertically rising doors, horizontally sliding doors and even garage doors with smaller doors built in for easy pedestrian access.
Shown below are 10 examples to show how 1 garage opening size can produce 10 very different drivethrough measurements and 10 very different installed prices.The example size is taken from the most frequently encountered single width brickwork size measured by our company over the last 26 years.
If you want to take your own garage opening measurements and get a more accurate price from us either go to our online quotation request or call us free on (0800) 525442
The brickwork opening size most encountered on single brick built garage openings is 2290mm wide (approx. 7’6”) x 2250mm high (approx. 7’4 3/4”). We assume for the examples below that there is sufficient headroom and sideroom internally.
The garage door prices are based on removing the old garage door and mechanism and disposing from site and the installation of a new fixing sub frame when required, the garage door panels and operating mechanism, and remote control electric operator where included. We have assumed very average times on site and no major making good work.
