I currently have 2 separate doors outomated with one centered Gemini motor. The current roll-up steel doors are old and grinding it out every time we open it. The doors either have to be replaced with 2 new doors, or have to be replaced with one solid door with a new motor. The current motor is however fine. I need advice and a quote to take an informed decision to make a change-over. Uncertain ito steel or alluminium and price/quality difference. Please contact me.
Normal front door needs replacement (I am not too concerned about looks, so am open to suggestions as to what type) - currently wood but this is the 2nd door in the last 15 years so need some advice. Current door is damaged/rotting. Will require installation as well. Location : Rooihuiskraal North, Centurion
The size is 4,37m (width) x 2,06m (height). I would like them to stack on the left hand side. I'd like the frames in black and charcoal, and installation included in the quote. The current glass sliding door, and sliding metal gate would need to be removed too, which I'd like included in the quote. I live in Durban North.
1.We have existing wood back door with window panel. 2. We have a 2 door with small glass panels. 3. Bedroom window to convert to sliding door. And window panel on 1 of 2 sides. Want to replace all with aluminium or upvc. It also needs to have a mesh door to keep flies, mozzies, cockroaches oout. I would like a golden bronzy colour. Or white. And it must have a guarentee and not be easy to break into. I believe this is a weakness of aluminium doors and windows. And all 3 must have a trellidoor or equivalent in same colour with a rust free guarentee.
I need two automated roll up garage doors installed. Both existing doors will need to be removed. One is a tip up door with counterweights, the other a manual roll up door. If you require further information email me and I can supply dimensions etc. Dimensions: Roll up door aperture width (the opening in the building for the door and cars) width 2.m height 2.14m Tip up door with hanging counterweights next to the roll up door, Door aperture width (the opening in the building for the door and cars) width 2,48m height 2.18m In both cases we want to replace them with electric roll up doors, with battery back up, remote operated.
Image attached: 1. Front door with padlock and glass panel above. I would like to replace the timber door and possibly the doorframe (if possible). And I would prefer the clear glass panel to be replaced with a solid panel to match the finish of the timber, inside and outside. Ideally all to be painted a medium sheen-black on the exterior and a neutral colour paint finish inside. There would need to be provision for a Yale handlock and a knocker/with knob on the exterior. Please suggest a design with raise and fielded panels - I am also open to the idea of a stable door.
Well the wooden door has Ribbed like glass and on the side wooden frame where the locks meet. That side glass is broken and needs replacing. It's a plain glass as I think it was broken before. But I would like the matching Ribbed glass as the main door for the side broken door. Do you have that in stock and are you in Somerset west? I'm in CBD near Lion square. I prefer communicating over whatsapp.
The garage door must be fitting for a double garage and automated at best. One double door garage is preferred with wooden material otherwise I am open for advice. The garage door must must be blocks or stripes. A roll-up is preferred however an open door style or tilt style can be navigated. Any other aspect can be discussed with the Pro.
The existing wooden door which leads onto the balcony from the apartment blocks stairwell was broken off by the wind. We need the frame repaired if damaged and the door which is a hollow door replaced with a solid wooden door but the cheapest one available. The new solid door has to look similar to the other balcony doors in the block, please see the attachment for the design. The existing hinges, lock and door handle can be used on the new door. If the new door can be varnished in the same colour as the old one then please go ahead but if not then no problem, we will varnish it.
