With the property market beginning to improve more and more people are upgrading their properties with a view to putting them on the market early in 2010. This includes either repairing or replacing their garage door or garage doors. The garage door is often the focal point of a property and in most cases it is one of the first things visitors and potential buyers see when they arrive at the house.

There are a wide range of garage doors to choose from and we at Arridge Garage Doors can supply doors from all the leading manufacturers including: Henderson, Hormann, Garador, Cardale, Wessex, Gliderol, Aluroll, Cedar Door, Silvelox, Jeldwen and Carteck(see below). We specialise in quality garage doors at discount prices.

Cardale discontinued the Carteck (Teckentrup) sectional door about 12 months ago but it has re-entered the market via a new company namely Signature Garage Doors. Signature specialise in special sizes and in the majority of cases a speedy delivery. They also offer a wide range of sizes that other sectional door manufacturers only offer as “specials”. The Carteck doors are manufactured in Germany by Teckentrup and epitomise the quality of German Engineering.

Aluroll, who manufacture the Insulated Roller Shutter garage door, have launched a new Low Cost – Quality – Insulated Roller Shutter door. This gives the customer the option to buy a quality insulated roller shutter door without breaking the bank. Aluroll doors have undergone tests and have met insurance company security standards which is known as the LCPB Insurance Approved Certificate. This gives their doors High Security status.

We now have a dedicated Security Roller Shutter door site which went live earlier this year. This offers quality, low cost, high security shutters for windows and doors. We can also offer high security roller shutter doors for Industrial Units. The site address is: www.discount-security-shutters.co.uk

We also have a web site dedicated to Henderson Garage Doors. The web address for this site is: www.discount-henderson-garage-doors.co.uk  This site will tell our customers all they need to know about Henderson Garage Doors. Henderson were bought out by Cardale in March/April 2009 which meant the Cardale Group included themselves, Henderson and Wessex.

Unfortunately this group went into administration in about July 2009 but has re-emerged as a new company called the BRP Group (Building Related Products Group). We wish them every success in this new venture and we will of course continue to sell their products.

Banbury Doors have recently started trading and offer a comprehensive range of GRP garage doors which are often cheaper than their steel counterparts. They are mostly available as made to measure doors (at no additional cost) and are virtually maintenance free. They come in a variety of woodgrain colours as well as white (either gloss white or woodgrain white). Banbury previously traded as Meridian to all intents and purposes.

The Fitting Service we can offer on most doors has been extended to most parts of the country and now includes Anglesey. If you require fitting then please ask when you make your enquiry. It is helpful that when doing so you let us know in which part of the country you live. We also have a FITTERS SITE where the fitters and prices are shown. This is www.garagedoor1.co.uk

Another new feature is that we can now offer delivery of most Roller Shutter and Sectional doors to Northern Ireland and mainland Europe at a very reasonable rate. We have also undertaken export of doors to Nigeria, Ghana, USA, and the Falkand Islands. We regularly ship doors to the Channel Islands.
We can also supply a comprehensive range of Garage Door Spares at very competitive prices for virtually any make of garage door.
