FAQs
Is an up and over garage door the best solution for families with children or pets?
Each up and over garage door supplied by Wessex Garage Doors meets EU safety regulations and come with anti-drop devices to ensure maximum safety for everyone in the family. It goes without saying that full adult supervision is always recommended when garage doors are being operated in the vicinity of kids or pets.
How long does it take to install new garage doors?
At Wessex Garage Doors, we have an experienced team of garage door technicians at our disposal who will come to your house to install the new doors. A typical garage door installation takes around 2-5 hours. Some specialist doors or electric models may be more complicated to fit and take longer.
What is the best way I can look after my garage door?
Regular maintenance should include thorough cleaning and lubricating of all moving parts at least every 4 months. Wash your doors with a mild soap-based solution every few months, more frequently in coastal areas. Salt and bird droppings can be particularly corrosive and should be removed asap. Recoat your doors as advised by the stain/paint manufacturer and don’t forget to invest in a professional garage door service once a year.

Yesterday we completed the installation of this doubled sized garage door with matching personnel door.
Both these GRP (fibreglass) doors are handmade here in the UK by our supplier The Corporate Door Company (CDC) and are in the 'Verwood' style.
The customer opted for Golden Brown with a brown frame and manual locking.
A match made in heaven don't you think?!

After removing all the damaged yellow (mustard 🤔) doors we've installed four white Georgian steel up and over garage doors to the existing frames.
All of them have been fitted with canopy lifting gear and upgraded four point locking.
We disposed of all the old doors.

It really is incredible how much this GRP (fibreglass) sample looks like timber.
GRP (Glass Reinforced Polyester) is an ideal material for the construction of garage doors:
- being both light weight and durable
- it does not rust, warp or rot
- has the same strength to weight ratio as steel.
Bonus is that a fibreglass garage door is virtually maintenance free. It will only need a periodical clean with a soft cloth and warm water unless those blasted birds decide to leave their droppings all over the door. Remove bird droppings as soon as possible as they can be particularly caustic.
If you would like more information about GRP garage doors then feel free to contact us and we'll be happy to answer your questions.

This new Novoferm Novoroll 77 roller shutter is certainly an improvement on the previous garage door.
The customer opted for Anthracite Grey with matching full hood and guide tracks in the same colour.
This electric garage door comes with two hand transmitters, was made to measure, and comes in a wide range of other colours.
