Mount Edgecombe is estate territory. The estates run tight architectural guidelines, and a garage door that does not match the approved finish will not get past the aesthetics committee, whatever it cost.

What we see in Mount Edgecombe

The work here is as much paperwork as steel. Each estate has a specification for door style, colour and sometimes slat profile, and the approval has to be in hand before anything is manufactured. We have had doors rejected on colour alone.

So we survey, produce a spec sheet with the finish reference on it, and submit it for approval before we cut anything. It adds a week at the front and saves a rebuild at the back. The estates also set contractor hours and access procedures, and we book to those.

Getting on site

Access on the coastal strip is usually straightforward but the parking is not, and on the complexes and estates it has to be arranged rather than assumed. We confirm gate access, contractor hours and where the vehicle can stand before the day, so the team is not sitting at a boom while the install window closes. Where a body corporate needs the specification approved first we submit it and wait rather than turning up with a door nobody signed off.

Motors, backup and load shedding

Motors near the sea fail for one of two reasons: salt in the housing or a board that has been sitting in damp air. We fit the head unit where it is sheltered, seal the housing and use a sealed control box rather than an open one. Every install includes a battery backup sized to get the door up and down through a full load shedding block, because a coastal home with no way out of the garage is a genuine problem, not an inconvenience.

Repairs on any make

We repair any make, including doors we did not build. On this strip the first question is always whether the corrosion has reached the structure or only the finish. If it is the finish, we can strip, treat and recoat and you get years out of it. If the guides or the bottom rail have gone through, we say so, because a cosmetic repair on corroded steel simply fails again by the next winter and you have paid twice.

What it costs

We quote Mount Edgecombe jobs off a free measured survey, itemised so you can see what the door, the motor and the installation each cost, and fixed in writing before anything is manufactured. We do not quote a range over the phone and then adjust it on site, because that is not a price, it is a deposit.

How soon we can be there

Surveys in Mount Edgecombe are normally within one working day and quotes follow the same day the survey is done. Manufacture depends on the door, and we give you a real date rather than an optimistic one. Breakdowns are attended same-day wherever we can reach you.

Getting a quote

Send us the opening, or ask for a survey and we will come and measure it. Either way you get an itemised written price for your Mount Edgecombe door, valid as quoted, with no charge for the visit.

Common questions

Roller doors in Mount Edgecombe

Not usually. A standard powder-coated door over untreated steel will look fine for a season or two in Mount Edgecombe and then start lifting, and the corrosion is already under it by the time you can see it. For anything within a couple of kilometres of the water we build in hot-dip galvanised steel or aluminium with a marine-grade finish, and we seal the motor housing. It costs more at install and it is the reason the door is still working in year ten.

Yes, and we would rather do the paperwork first. Send us the architectural guideline or the approved colour reference and we will produce a spec sheet for your Mount Edgecombe door before anything is manufactured, so it goes to the committee for approval rather than to your driveway for rejection. We have seen doors turned down on colour alone, and a rebuild is a great deal more expensive than a week of waiting.

Usually not. On the coast a door that binds is nearly always corrosion in the guides or at the fixings, and the motor is simply working harder to drag it through. If you replace the motor without dealing with the guides you will be replacing it again. We will come and look, tell you which it is, and quote the actual fault rather than the symptom.
