Replacement of a worn out garage door

Posted on April 21, 2015 by southamptoncarpenter

This type of up and over steel garage door is still very popular, and these had seen better days. The garage is of a standard precast concrete type.

The replacement garage doors are off the shelf, I did not manufacture them, and they did need some trimming to fit. A new door frame was also fitted; this needed to be rebated to fit the cast concrete profile. The pad bolts have large handles for ease of use, a standard 5 lever mortice sash lock and levers were fitted to the leading door.

Traditional standards. Traditional tradesman. Traditional service. I have been a carpenter for over 45years, 5 year apprenticeship as a boat builder, 2 years as a wood machinist, then a spell repairing furniture and manufacturing reproduction antique clocks. I spent a further 15 years working in a therapeutic environment passing on my skills, before setting myself up as a self-employed carpenter/joiner. As you will appreciate, I undertake a wide range of projects, so scrolling through the site map may well direct you to past work that may be similar to your requirements. The preferred way to contact me is by using the contact page on this site. However you can always ring me during normal working hours. Lead times vary depending on the time of year; small jobs I can often do promptly. I cover Southampton and I am also happy to visit Winchester and Salisbury areas, but a small fee will be charged
