What to know about garage roller doors in Kent
Safety edges and obstacle detection stop the door on contact, which matters where children or pets are around. Roller doors open straight up, so cars can park close to the door and nothing swings into the driveway. Up-and-over doors can usually be replaced with a roller door without changing the opening.
Domestic garage doors are covered by the same powered door safety standard as commercial doors. The box needs a little headroom inside the garage, which is checked at survey.
Options we can specify
- Fitted behind, in or on the face of the opening
- Safety edge and obstacle detection
- Insulated foam-filled aluminium laths
- Replaces up-and-over doors
- Colour and woodgrain finishes
- Manual override for power cuts

Covering Kent
We cover Kent from Maidstone to Gillingham, Chatham and Tunbridge Wells, with 23 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.
Shutters on a house: planning
For houses in England some small external changes fall under permitted development, but flats and maisonettes do not have the same rights, and listed buildings, conservation areas and Article 4 directions restrict changes to a property's appearance. If any of these apply, check with your council before ordering.

Your questions answered
Are roller garage doors insulated?
Most are, with foam-filled aluminium laths. They are not as thermally efficient as a wall, but they make a real difference to a garage used as a workspace.
What safety features do garage roller doors have?
Electric doors should stop and reverse on contact, using a safety edge or obstacle detection, and have a manual override for power cuts.
How much headroom does a roller garage door need?
The box needs some space above the opening inside or outside the garage. Exact clearance depends on the door height and curtain, so we measure it at survey.
Can I get a quote from photos?
Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
