How No1 Garage Doors works

We connect homeowners and businesses with vetted local garage door engineers. You tell us about the door and your postcode, and we pass the job to an engineer who covers your area. The engineer then contacts you to arrange a visit.

A firm price needs a survey, because every opening differs in width, height, headroom and side room. For example, a standard opening of 2290mm by 2250mm costs less to fit than a wide double door with a slim lintel. Our price pages explain these differences, so you can judge a quote before you accept it.

We cover all four main door types, namely roller, sectional, up-and-over and side-hinged. Each type suits a different garage, and each fails in its own way. Therefore, our guides explain the common faults, the safe checks you can make yourself and the point where you should call a professional.

Safety matters here, since a door can weigh well over 100kg and its springs hold a lot of stored energy. Never release a spring or a cable yourself. Instead, read our list of common problems and ask an engineer to deal with anything under tension.
