Posted: 23:57 - 08 Feb 2006 Post subject: Automatic Garage Doors |
|
|
I was looking into electric sectional garage doors on the internet after the up and over garage door decided to eat the cables (metal ones). I was intending to fit it myself and not spend lots and lots of money on labour charges which are not affordable. Of course I would like the BCF opinion and experiences.
There are a few queries I need to clear up.
Are they easy to install? I know how to use a hammer and a spanner.
Are they like flat packs and you just assemble and install it onto the garage walls?
Are they really cheap as £500-600 for a sectional door? |

Do you mean the whole door lifts up and folds back into the garage or rolls up? I should think they are fairly easy to fit just a bit orquard. Can you imagine holding it while waiting for someone to do the screws up. |

No cdi or coils. The cunts still haven't sent them.
Maybe the weekend after we can get the engine running. |

If your buying a garage door, don't get a canopy one. I have a canopy door and while I did manage to fit an automatic door opener to it, they are an arse. ____________________ Past >>>> Honda NSR 125 >>>> Suzuki GSXR 600 K1 >>>> Suzuki GSXR 600 K4 >>>>Kawasaki Z1000 DAF >>>>Suzuki RMZ 250 >>>> Current >>>> KTM Superduke R 1290 >>>> |

Sorry, I have to comment, a locksmith recommended you stick with lock and key
And I think I saw the best spelling of awkward EVER up there.
On a serious note a friend of mine has a garage door like you want, the little motor on the roof just looks dodgy as hell, I think I'd feel much more secure with a traditional door and a couple of big ass dead bolts.

Automating garage doors is my thing. I started a business last year converting existing doors to automatic, sadly thomson local printed the wrong phone number so the business adventure has stalled for the time being, wev'e done a few so if i can be of assistance i'll give you all the help i can. ____________________ don't take it easy 'ride it like you stole it' |
