Frequently Asked Questions
Answers to the most common questions Essex homeowners ask before booking a garage door survey.
What are the latest garage door trends?
Modern roller garage doors are moving towards sleek, contemporary finishes in darker colours such as anthracite grey and black, which suit both traditional and modern homes. Smart features including app-based control and camera integration are becoming the new standard, letting homeowners open and monitor their garage remotely. Insulated aluminium slats continue to grow in popularity for their combination of security, thermal performance and low maintenance.
How long does it take to install a roller garage door?
Most single roller garage door installations are completed in one visit, typically within half a day. Replacements of existing doors may take slightly longer if the old door and tracks need removing first. Rollrite confirm the expected timeframe at survey stage.
What is the difference between 55mm and 77mm roller doors?
55mm slats are the standard choice for single garages up to around 3 metres wide. 77mm slats are thicker and more rigid, designed for wider openings up to 5 metres. Rollrite will recommend the correct slat profile based on your opening width and structural requirements during the free survey.
Are roller garage doors secure?
Yes. Rollrite roller garage doors include anti-lift locking as standard, which prevents the curtain being forced open from outside. Combined with the automatic safety edge and robust aluminium construction, they provide strong physical security for your garage.
Do you repair existing roller garage doors?
Yes. Rollrite handle repairs across Essex for common faults including damaged slats, motor failures, remote control issues, stuck doors and safety edge problems. Call 01376 800 750 to book a local repair visit.

Do roller garage doors need planning permission?
In most cases, replacing a garage door like-for-like does not require planning permission under permitted development rights. If your property is listed or in a conservation area, you may need to check with your local authority first. Rollrite can advise during the free survey.
