  • Insulated roller garage door fitted to a semi-detached home in Durham

    Domestic roller garage doors

    More than a third of homes in County Durham are semi-detached, well above the national average, and terraced houses make up another third on top of that. Most garages in the area sit integral or attached with a standard single opening. Our 55mm and 77mm insulated aluminium profiles are sized and priced for exactly that. Once you have one, you’ll wonder how you ever managed without it.

  • Galvanised steel roller shutter fitted to a commercial unit in Durham

    Commercial & industrial shutters

    Durham’s commercial and industrial premises are spread across several well-established estates close to the A1(M): Belmont Industrial Estate, Dragonville, Meadowfield, and Littleburn at Langley Moor are the main concentrations, and we’ve fitted shutters across all of them.

    Crime in the Durham area runs above the national average. For any commercial premises with stock, tools, or equipment on site, a well-fitted shutter is one of the most straightforward ways to harden the building overnight. Our 75mm and 95mm galvanised steel profiles are built for daily use on openings that get worked hard.

The majority of Durham garages are standard integral single openings on semi-detached or terraced houses built to the same dimensions found across the North East. No unusual headroom requirements, no awkward structural complications.

Here’s how it works:

  1. Fix the guide rails to the wall. Drill, plug, and secure each side.
  2. Slide the top box into position (two people needed) then fix to the wall.
  3. Connect the door to the control unit and plug in.
  4. Set the open and close limits on the motor.

Done. No specialist tools or equipment needed.

If you get stuck at any point, free technical support is available. Our engineers have walked many Durham customers through the installation over the phone.

Supply and fit

If you’d rather not get your hands dirty, and you’re within our local area, our team will survey your opening for free and fit the door for you. Durham is about 20 minutes from our factory down the A690, so there’s no long callout and no waiting weeks for a slot.

Fitted across Durham by our own team

Our factory is on Ferryboat Lane at Sunrise Enterprise Park. Durham is around 20 minutes down the A690, and it falls well within our regular fitting area. Every job is surveyed and installed by the same team that built the door. No third-party fitters, no subcontractors.

Durham’s housing is among the most garage-friendly in the North East. Over a third of homes in the county are semi-detached, and terraced properties make up another third on top of that. Flats account for only around 4% of the housing stock, well below the national figure, so the overwhelming majority of homes here are houses with accessible garages. Post-war estates across Newton Hall, Framwellgate Moor, and Belmont account for a large share of single integral openings. Gilesgate and the older streets closer to the city centre have more attached rear garages with lane access. Brandon and Langley Moor follow a similar pattern.

Frequently Asked Questions

If you can't find the answer to your question, give us a call, we're happy to help

Yes. Durham falls well within our regular fitting area. We carry out a free site survey and our own team fits the door. Most jobs are booked in quickly given how close we are to the area.

No. Integral garages are the most common type we fit in Durham. The installation process is the same regardless of whether the garage is attached to the house or free-standing.

You only need to give us the daylight opening: brick-to-brick width and floor-to-lintel height. Our system calculates the box and guide rail dimensions from those figures. We provide a step-by-step measuring guide, and if you’re unsure before ordering, send us a photo of your opening and we’ll check it first.

Resellers add a margin and pass the order to a manufacturer elsewhere. We are the manufacturer. Your door is built at our factory to your measurements, and if anything isn’t right, you deal directly with the people who made it.

Our standard turnaround is 14 days from order to door ready. For supply and fit jobs in Durham we’ll book the survey in quickly. If you have a specific deadline, call us and we’ll tell you whether we can meet it.
