Overview
Gliderol Roller Doors are made with a galvanised steel profile curtain with maintenance - free Plastisol coating which runs in steel guide rails on either side. The door mounts to rear face of the garage door opening which often allows for a wider opening width - useful for today's bigger cars.
Roller doors offer increased security as the door is held in 'C' guides all of the way down both sides of the door from floor to lintol. Gliderol roller doors also reduce the drafts in your garage compared to standard 'up and over' doors as they have a heavy duty weather seal across the length of the bottom edge of the door and webbing attached to the door curtain which runs in the guides.
Unlike an 'up and over' garage door a Gliderol door rolls up vertically and consequently doesn't swing out in front of the garage. This means you can park right up to the door and benefit from more hanging space in the roof of the garage.
Choosing the correct size
Width - measure the width of your brick to brick opening; use this to specify the door width you require.
Height - measure the floor to the underside of the lintel; use this to specify the door height you require.
Please select your Gliderol Roller Door from the list above depending on the width of the garage door opening.
The actual width of the garage door will be slightly wider than the width of your garage door opening in order to fit behind the opening and be secured into the runners
For opening width of up to 6'-2" (1880mm) to 11'-2" (3400mm) wide, the door is supplied 2 inches (50mm) wider than the opening.
For opening width of 12'-2" (3760mm) and over, the door is supplied 4 inches (100mm) wider than the opening.
For your height this is the floor level to lintol (providing you have a minimum of 420mm headroom from the bottom of the lintol to the ceiling or joists.
For example:
for your Width: If your garage brick to brick opening width is 7'-6", you add 2" which gives you 7'-8"
for your height: If your garage floor to lintol is 7'-0", and you have 400mm from your lintol to ceiling, you would need the 7'-0 high door, and you would have to cut of 20mm of the bottom of the guide
Please Note: all opening heights will be reduced by 25mm, this is the bottom rail and rubber seal which hangs below the guide stop
Clearances
Gliderol doors fit to the rear (inside) face of the opening and require:
Headroom: from 420mm minimum
Opening height up to 2135mm = 420mm
Opening height up to 2440mm = 450mm
Opening height up to 2740mm = 480mm
Opening height up to 3055mm = 520mm
Sideroom: from 75mm minimum
Single manual doors up to 3400mm wide .... brick to brick opening + 75mm on each side
Single electric doors up to 3400mm wide .... brick to brick opening + 95mm on each side that the motor will be fitted and 75mm on the other side.
Double manual doors over 3400mm wide.... brick to brick opening + 150mm on each side
Double electric doors over 3400mm wide.... brick to brick opening + 170mm on each side that the motor will be fitted and 150mm on the other side.
Replacing old doors: Most people remove the old door and frame to give a wider opening, i.e. a 7' wide traditional up and over door would generally have a 7'-6" brick to brick width the extra 6" which the frame takes up results in a lot easier to drive through.
Guarantee information:
Gliderol doors are built to take the wear and tear of life and the weather and they are able to provide some impressive guarrantees as long as the door is reasonably maintained:
10-year Plastisol door finish
6-year mechanical parts
2-year electric parts
In the event of a power failure you will need to access the garage via a personnel door to engage the manual override and open the door manually.
If you do not have an alternative way into the garage then you must purchase the 'External Manual Release/Electric Key Switch' option above.
This is fitted next to the garage door... turning the key in one direction enables you to open the door if there is a power cut and turning the key in the other direction allows you to open the door with the electric motor (assuming there is power!).
Delivery & Charges
Approximately 3 weeks. As a rule of thumb orders received in week 1 are manufactured during week 2 and delivered direct from the manufacturer during week 3.
We try and offer free delivery on all our doors & remote control systems, unfortunately Gliderol will not offer a reduced rate, we have therefore come up with our own deal were we are still able to offer a very competitive price on the doors, once you have decided on the correct motor, please tick the delivery area, thank you.
