Automated Garage Doors Garage Doors FAQs

What sizes and materials do electric garage doors come in?

Like manual garage doors, electric doors can come in a variety of materials – the most commonly used ones being steel and timber. Each material has its benefits; steel is typically more robust, whereas wood elevates your kerb appeal. Electric garage doors are highly customisable and can come in a range of sizes depending on the dimensions of your aperture.

Are electric garage doors more secure?

Electric garage doors are incredibly secure and often prove safer than manual garage doors. Many electric garage doors have an automatic locking system, so you don’t need to worry about inadvertently leaving your door unlocked. Furthermore, the automated locking mechanism makes your door more robust and harder to force entry.

Can you automate existing garage doors?

Yes, as long as your existing garage door is in good condition then it can be automated. We will inspect your door and assess the kind of motor required, before retrofitting a new control system.

Are electric garage doors energy efficient?

Electric garage doors only utilise power when the motor is in use. On average, a typical automated garage door needs 500W per minute when in use, which works out at an estimated 0.033kWH per day. This is a minuscule amount of electricity when compared with other household appliances. Furthermore, electric garage doors can actually boost your energy efficiency as they comprise insulating layers which help to conserve heat.

Do electric garage doors need servicing?

Yes, your electric garage doors are a piece of machinery, so it is essential they are inspected regularly. An annual service is recommended, where a professional will examine the automated mechanism to ensure it is safe. Regular services will prolong the longevity of your electric garage doors, as they identify small mechanical issues before they worsen.
