Transformation – Case Study 1
Being confronted with a pair of dilapidated up-and-over doors was no problem, but the concrete, cast in situ lintel was. The lintel was bowed and bearing down on the wooden frames, which were rotting at the base.
This is what we did. Some pre-planning was required. We designed a structural steel column with flanges at the top and bottom and ordered it from a local engineering firm. The concrete slab was drilled to determine whether it was adequate to take the load of the new column.
On installation day, we first supported the lintel with Acrow props and removed the old doors and frames. The new column was bolted into place with fixings concealed below the finished floor level.

We now had the perfect canvas to install the new roller doors behind the brickwork, new column, and lintel. Once installed, the reveals and lintel were clad in white plastic building board.
The Beauty of Oak – Case Study 2
Oak frame buildings are a joy to work on for many reasons: the beauty of natural wood, the classic style of design, and-with a few adjustments-the ease of installation.

Roller doors really lend themselves to oak frame buildings: simple, straight up-and-down closing, unimpaired by the corner trusses and with no overhead obstructions inside.
Two Doors Become One – Case Study 3
A large detached 1980s house was having its first ever full refurbishment and the two barrow garage openings into a large space were not ideal.
The process was to insert a steel lintel before removing the old doors to retain security.
The brick façade above the doors was supported and the existing lintels removed. A full length steel lintel to support the brickwork was inserted and the brickwork above repointed. Two days later the old doors were removed followed by the central brick pillar.
From this point the installation of our Optima 77 SE roller door, 4.6m wide was routine. The old doors were removed and, the new door installed all on the same day.
