We’re talking bright blues, radiant reds, and gorgeous greens – it was like a paint palette exploded in the best way possible!<br /><br />And let me tell you, it wasn’t just about looking fabulous. These style icons put their fashion foot forward to raise money for Comic Relief. By the end of the day, we had collected a fantastic £109.59! That’s right, every vibrant vest and jazzy jumper helped inch that total higher and higher.<br /><br />It’s heartwarming to see how a bit of fun and a lot of colour can make such a difference. So here’s a massive shoutout to team Garador for bringing their most colourful selves to work and raising money for a great cause. Until next time, keep it bright and keep it right!<br /><br />Head on over to <a href="http://www.comicrelief.com">www.comicrelief.com</a> to make a donation. <br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-72448270205652880272023-12-20T16:34:00.001+00:002023-12-20T16:34:00.138+00:00Meet the Garador aeroplane: a mini marvel of engineering<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9qoTCEfep5JXLcge766CFRQH0-fEMk3YYrXYHZeGJCKStl5U6chLCY4-ivOvBHg6jFXqwbNuaREdn3t9CSfAH5e0qTEUIb-fFx5hVD91ht195J37IxzRwQz4YGCXrVFXu_bK66BVmf6jdf6Rlf_N86FYK149JSsQhwzoextHL70rpmH56NYgc52XYfwA/s800/1.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Garador's model plane for their 75th anniversary" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj9qoTCEfep5JXLcge766CFRQH0-fEMk3YYrXYHZeGJCKStl5U6chLCY4-ivOvBHg6jFXqwbNuaREdn3t9CSfAH5e0qTEUIb-fFx5hVD91ht195J37IxzRwQz4YGCXrVFXu_bK66BVmf6jdf6Rlf_N86FYK149JSsQhwzoextHL70rpmH56NYgc52XYfwA/s16000/1.jpg" title="Garador's model plane for their 75th anniversary" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>Have you ever seen a tiny plane do amazing stunts in the sky? Well, you might have a chance to witness one soon, thanks to one of our talented engineers. <br /><br />This year marks our 75th anniversary and as part of the celebrations, one of our talented team made this nifty looking model plane, complete with Garador insignia. It looks brilliant<br /><br />We created a model aeroplane that is a replica of the famous Pitts Special S2A, a biplane that is known for its acrobatic performance. The Garador aeroplane is not just a toy, but a mini masterpiece of engineering. It has a 14-inch wing span and a powerful 450 watts electric motor that can make it soar, loop, and roll with ease. It also has a built-in battery that lasts longer than the usual methanol engines.<br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp9_0atq_iYOSoZuUkTGk4ZcBBVAXHV_ChmFHVwStquWHIvzqmXFz5vT2wSsvmx6gO2Yj_Av8ST8LiSwgLlrqYuQA21_4SEiXljmB1eoNH_vh3fnHKAqGe3eUcsROFd9Jjw6fMg7TOo1qixawVoEiDbe0QkhFsMCQeC6TujmpNGJJCJ7q3IYKEHEzccmY/s800/2.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="A closer look at the exceptional craftsmanship of the plane" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhp9_0atq_iYOSoZuUkTGk4ZcBBVAXHV_ChmFHVwStquWHIvzqmXFz5vT2wSsvmx6gO2Yj_Av8ST8LiSwgLlrqYuQA21_4SEiXljmB1eoNH_vh3fnHKAqGe3eUcsROFd9Jjw6fMg7TOo1qixawVoEiDbe0QkhFsMCQeC6TujmpNGJJCJ7q3IYKEHEzccmY/s16000/2.jpg" title="A closer look at the exceptional craftsmanship of the plane" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>The plane is made of balsa wood and plywood, covered with a special film that protects it from the sun. Plus, it has all the features of a real aeroplane, such as accelerometer, ailerons, elevator, and rudder. It took almost a year to design and build this plane, using a laser cutting machine and CAD software to make the panels fit perfectly.<br /><br />The model aeroplane is a celebration of our 75th anniversary and a glimpse of the talent which goes into our products and services. We've been making garage doors since 1948, and this plane is a testament to our team's passion and expertise. If you want to see this plane in action, keep an eye out for the next airshow near you. You might be lucky enough to catch a glimpse of this mini marvel.<br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-73816159135985851412023-12-11T10:21:00.005+00:002023-12-20T10:31:57.649+00:00We made donations to our local food bank<p><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3rKl0tuB4LZ9Y3vg7X9QKhpL1FRIj9iwWtxugmyl1Q7NH8omCysMMf8fj2DlzNsznoWZu3bfWby7BlTVuT92CGq_ZydAE7iVr_Bp9B3FuqCIoc7lI7-DVIfIwMrR4mj1xUm7DS2kmWW58rESRWP0I0FFn-sEGyk61ssqbp1aog0s3_SqM7MB2OY4Vlbk/s800/lords_larder_2023.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Garador staff donations to the local food bank" border="0" data-original-height="800" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3rKl0tuB4LZ9Y3vg7X9QKhpL1FRIj9iwWtxugmyl1Q7NH8omCysMMf8fj2DlzNsznoWZu3bfWby7BlTVuT92CGq_ZydAE7iVr_Bp9B3FuqCIoc7lI7-DVIfIwMrR4mj1xUm7DS2kmWW58rESRWP0I0FFn-sEGyk61ssqbp1aog0s3_SqM7MB2OY4Vlbk/s16000/lords_larder_2023.jpg" title="Garador staff donations to the local food bank" /></a></p><br /><p></p><p>Christmas is a time of giving and sharing, and our generous staff are doing their bit to make a difference by donating food to our local food bank in Yeovil, The Lord's Larder. <br /><br />The charity has been operating since 1991 and relies on donations from individuals, churches, schools and businesses to help feed over 5000 people a year.<br /><br />Garador's staff have been collecting food items for the Lord's Larder throughout December, filling up boxes with everything from tinned food and vegetables to soups, biscuits and pasta.

Back in June 2022, we decided to take the plunge and commission a study to see how feasible it would be to install solar panels on the roof of our Yeovil manufacturing plant. After considering a variety of different renewable options, each with their pros and cons, we settled on solar panels as they were deemed to be the most practical and cost-effective method of generating electricity. </p><p>With the decision to shift towards green energy taken, we then explored costs and potential suppliers to do the job. The roof also needed to be checked and examined to see whether it could support solar panels, which would exert a significant pressure and weight across the building. The factory was built way back in 1984, and opened the following year, and is still in really great condition, thanks to regular maintenance and care from our diligent and conscientious maintenance engineers. The roof sheeting and structure of the building hadn't degraded.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyIjrTXiX5Zwb-dRU72nsgdOn6xZBBSmEwLM_T2d-2J4GPA5aLPtiazxvBSNdVEXdOh4FTo90xb2IRmRkXexglMz88eCSYxpAB0RMB9qwzaeSRtRqnCIcRuC2rAyCHYn5tWGkwo0vWpRP9-dQcF6r18AySGXohazCJRwJ9NK9kHGtV2KIOhYF0ZD3ohfk/s800/2.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Replacing the roof lights in preparation for the solar panels" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyIjrTXiX5Zwb-dRU72nsgdOn6xZBBSmEwLM_T2d-2J4GPA5aLPtiazxvBSNdVEXdOh4FTo90xb2IRmRkXexglMz88eCSYxpAB0RMB9qwzaeSRtRqnCIcRuC2rAyCHYn5tWGkwo0vWpRP9-dQcF6r18AySGXohazCJRwJ9NK9kHGtV2KIOhYF0ZD3ohfk/s16000/2.jpg" title="Replacing the roof lights in preparation for the solar panels" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>After many months of meetings and preparations, the scaffolding needed to access the roof went up in late March 2023.

Some good old-fashioned elbow grease was needed to clean the roof and so a team of cleaners' pressure washed the entire area getting rid of any dirt or grime which had accumulated up there. </p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh64z6namEuqEe4-6uremF6cecVC03GrC-MzCJjaUAqSSPmMuB9xeXnkTDK2jJK11sKVwtmpEEUWZK__aybj3pITgVqd4w3FURgMDWHvd5QED3ZzjN-sKUXCcytj_zKUmukn2XH0pbZZqxi3qoHYgnbaGu4j0kVwdRxQxuL15oiEWViwo7_LELq21Gwy_c/s800/3.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Painting the roof with a special rubberised paint" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh64z6namEuqEe4-6uremF6cecVC03GrC-MzCJjaUAqSSPmMuB9xeXnkTDK2jJK11sKVwtmpEEUWZK__aybj3pITgVqd4w3FURgMDWHvd5QED3ZzjN-sKUXCcytj_zKUmukn2XH0pbZZqxi3qoHYgnbaGu4j0kVwdRxQxuL15oiEWViwo7_LELq21Gwy_c/s16000/3.jpg" title="Painting the roof with a special rubberised paint" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>By now June had come around, the birds were chirping and the bees were buzzing, and the days were much brighter and longer - perfect weather for working out in the fresh air! Apparently, the roof required a lick of paint too! So we decided that if we were going to do it, we might just as well make a really good job of it and use a protective rubberised paint that would protect the surface for many years to come.

It was a huge undertaking and looking back, you could see the sheer scale of what had to be achieved. </p><p></p><p></p><p>Back on the ground work was underway to implement a state-of-the-art system, for converting sunshine into the electricity that we know and love. One of the best ways to save energy is via an excellent flexible control unit and the new state-of-the-art equipment does just that, integrating power from our new solar panels when necessary. This means you only use mains electricity when you really need to.<br /></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVqRQdhmPnPusvexBfqK9I0OLZ7MIvQTxozakx5cKo17U81fqhoNbWLfhspHMOQ1sF4iimmdKHBKDhdx3j5lbwRWu5BUtyaG-LoMAtyNEdtuAlhP5Mmk1vO8ZRf-k6xj9TH8OV50xaDLrbMX9qMoVhBihhu7yLgRSAMxLPNy7HpW1YxQk4yoVmm96Dq70/s800/10.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="The finished result, over 1500 solar panels installed on the roof at Garador" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiVqRQdhmPnPusvexBfqK9I0OLZ7MIvQTxozakx5cKo17U81fqhoNbWLfhspHMOQ1sF4iimmdKHBKDhdx3j5lbwRWu5BUtyaG-LoMAtyNEdtuAlhP5Mmk1vO8ZRf-k6xj9TH8OV50xaDLrbMX9qMoVhBihhu7yLgRSAMxLPNy7HpW1YxQk4yoVmm96Dq70/s16000/10.jpg" title="The finished result, over 1500 solar panels installed on the roof at Garador" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p>The solar panels will help run all of the production equipment in the factory, so we don’t have to use as much fossil fuel based energy and make less pollution. Back on 28th September 2023 we made our first garage door using renewable energy generated from the solar panels. It's still early days and difficult to predict exactly how much of our energy will come from the solar panels, but currently it looks like the solar panels will give us more than half of the power we need
in the summer, and still a lot in the winter. The system will make over 700,000 kWh of clean electricity every year and help to save a lot of money on energy bills cutting
CO2 emissions by over 300 tonnes. What an achievement!</p><p>We want to do our bit for the environment and the introduction of solar panels is an important step.

<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;">It’s been designed with multi-use garages in mind, where
you can have the flexibility to use your garage for a range of functions but
also get inside quickly and easily, especially when retrieving or storing
gardening tools, bicycles or other large and cumbersome items. </span></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;"></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRUU_X4tKETIG3w-DPYYlQ1m7N4l6Z64GYTueurFabWBvILKlc3e5A-S27iJcJzBdEOlbKs6TAbJEi1PbjWuRr55HTsSR8TbcdsbQHGS_hN5Lw4gxCR0bPmc9owU6GpMp_-0g8mwevsR4rGc4Htwyl19kFAAxRFcm-NuO98B8z8lr7MN4Wt4J19eU8u8o/s800/salisbury_side_hinged_windows.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Salisbury side-hinged garage door windows" border="0" data-original-height="533" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiRUU_X4tKETIG3w-DPYYlQ1m7N4l6Z64GYTueurFabWBvILKlc3e5A-S27iJcJzBdEOlbKs6TAbJEi1PbjWuRr55HTsSR8TbcdsbQHGS_hN5Lw4gxCR0bPmc9owU6GpMp_-0g8mwevsR4rGc4Htwyl19kFAAxRFcm-NuO98B8z8lr7MN4Wt4J19eU8u8o/s16000/salisbury_side_hinged_windows.jpg" title="Salisbury side-hinged garage door windows" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p class="MsoNormal"><br /></p><p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;">The new <a href="https://www.garador.co.uk/garador-range/side-hinged-garage-doors.aspx" target="_blank">side hinged garage door</a> comes with 2-point
locking and concealed hinges for security and gas pistons which act as
dampeners, ensuring a smooth and cushioned movement as the door is opened or
closed. Weather proof sealing also helps keep wet and blustery conditions outside. Plus, there are also door stays to prevent the door blowing shut.</span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;"></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span style="mso-ligatures: none;">The opening system is designed for ease and comfort, with one fixed
leaf and one leading leaf that makes it much easier to quickly get to what's being stored inside the garage. In situations where a
car is being parked inside, both doors open outwards to offer maximum drive-through
clearance and there aren’t any tracks or gear systems taking up valuable ceiling
or wall space. So you've got full use of the space indoors. <br /></span></p>

They rely on public donations to keep flying and saving lives.<br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-42936829126717424292023-04-26T12:18:00.017+01:002023-05-18T12:31:18.133+01:00Doing our bit for the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZQz_bHw_DcmkP8AHhiFts316Y6_O1Hlchttu0RAL4A-xPQ1-20o8gTCfHiPQ0jyxbTb5z2PJQeOondzbjPr1jUghTgh9dmFC7R8R8xPKOxzo5hkSryx8dOXx93-3e9An7At9IiOBkgGuJpz4v8ebVEEagwehuvPBtAImP29bfqY1BkA15O8meRKoE/s800/garador_supports_coast_to_coast_cycle_challenge-SMALL.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Cyclists line up to transport their bikes back to the start of the event" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZQz_bHw_DcmkP8AHhiFts316Y6_O1Hlchttu0RAL4A-xPQ1-20o8gTCfHiPQ0jyxbTb5z2PJQeOondzbjPr1jUghTgh9dmFC7R8R8xPKOxzo5hkSryx8dOXx93-3e9An7At9IiOBkgGuJpz4v8ebVEEagwehuvPBtAImP29bfqY1BkA15O8meRKoE/s16000/garador_supports_coast_to_coast_cycle_challenge-SMALL.jpg" title="Cyclists line up to transport their bikes back to the start of the event" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p>We were absolutely delighted to continue our support of the Dorset & Somerset Air Ambulance last weekend, with their annual Coast to Coast Cycle Challenge! It's such a fantastic event which raises much needed funds for the air ambulance, so we were really pleased to be able to provide our lorries again to help transport cyclists from the finish back to the start of the event. <br /> <br />Money is still coming in for the charity event, but over £45,000 has already been received. Hundreds of cyclists took part, giving there all to the gruelling 55 mile ride across Somerset and Dorset<br /> <br />As in previous years, the route started from Watchet in North Somerset and finished in West Bay on the Dorset Coast. Each of the Garador lorries have a custom built storage system that makes it so bikes can be easily wheeled into our lorries and firmly secured for the journey. Our drivers also gave their time and helped to ensure all the participants could easily get back to Watchet and find their cars after the ride.<br /> <br />Check out <a href="http://www.dsairambulance.org.uk">www.dsairambulance.org.uk</a> to find out more about the excellent work this charity does or to look at making a donation<br /><br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-30783171838363510882023-03-23T15:41:00.009+00:002023-04-06T17:13:45.496+01:00Choosing the right material for your garage door<p><!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

well beyond aesthetic considerations of simply how it will look. Garador offer
a variety of materials for their garage doors, including steel, timber, GRP and
aluminium, each of which have merits and can add value to your property. </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In this post we will look at some of the benefits and
drawbacks of the different materials on offer, and which one is likely to suit
your particular circumstances. It’s not just the usage of the garage that is
important to consider, but the location and other characteristics such as
whether the garage is attached to the main house. So let’s dive in and find out
more about the different materials on offer.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Aluminium</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Aluminium is a light and corrosion-resistant material that
can withstand impact, scratches and dents without losing its shape or quality. Aluminium
is very suitable as a material for garage doors and is used in Garador's
GaraRoll roller doors as part of the curtain as it is durable and lightweight,
which makes it easier to install and operate. Garador's aluminium laths are
foam filled, giving them structural rigidity. Aluminium is also resistant to
rust and corrosion, which prolongs its lifespan especially in coastal regions.
Furthermore, it is secure and can withstand impact and intrusion attempts.
Finally, an aluminium GaraRoll roller door can enhance the kerb appeal of any
modern home with its sleek and modern design.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Steel </b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Steel is a popular material for garage doors, due to its
affordability, meaning it is cheaper than other materials and lasts well,
reducing the need for repairs or replacements. It is typically used on Garador’s
up & over and sectional garage doors. The steel is galvanised so it is more durable and therefore
resistant to rusting and because it’s supplied with a thick powder-coated paint
it will stand the test of time. In addition, it is relatively low maintenance
and doesn’t require an excessive amount of time to spend on cleaning and
painting to maintain the material. Furthermore, it can be formed into various
shapes, with swage or panel pressed styles which can add value to your home’s
appearance and potentially enhance it’s resale value.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>Timber</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Garador’s timber up & over, side-hinged and personnel
garage door models are constructed from natural solid red cedar, which is a
durable and stable soft wood which can withstand moisture, insects, weather and
general wear and tear better than most other types of wood, thus making it very
suitable for an external building product like a garage door. Cedar wood is rot
resistant, so it will last longer than other softwoods.Furthermore, it is relatively lightweight and will therefore
put less stress on the lifting gear than some other heavier, denser types of wood.
</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><b>GRP (Glass-Reinforced-Polyester)</b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">GRP is a composite material that combines fiberglass strands
and resin, for a lightweight, yet strong and durable garage door material. They
can resist harsh weather conditions and salty sea air, making them ideal for
coastal locations or areas with extreme climates. GRP garage doors do not rust,
warp or rot, and require very little maintenance. Furthermore, they can also imitate
the appearance of wood with realistic woodgrain textures and a variety of
colourful options which look like natural timber stains. In addition, to the
timber effect versions Garador also offer a silky, smooth gloss white GRP
product in the form of the Arden.</p>

After all, you don't want to end up with a door that doesn't fit or that damages your ceiling. In this blog post, we'll explore some of the options available for garages with limited ceiling space and help you choose the best one for your needs.<br /><br />One of the most common types of garage doors for garages with obstructions in the ceiling space is the side-hinged door. This is a door that opens outwards from the sides, rather than upwards from the bottom. <a href="https://www.garador.co.uk/garador-range/side-hinged-garage-doors.aspx" target="_blank">Side-hinged garage doors</a> are easy to install and operate, and they don't require any overhead tracks or springs. They also offer a more traditional and rustic look that can complement your home's style.<br /><br />Another option for garages with limited ceiling space is the <a href="https://www.garador.co.uk/garador-range/roller-garage-doors.aspx" target="_blank">roller door</a>. This is a door that rolls up into a compact cylinder above the opening, rather than sliding along the ceiling. Roller doors are ideal for saving space and maximizing clearance, as they only need a few inches of headroom. They also offer a sleek and modern look that can enhance your home's exterior appearance.<br /><br />As you can see, there are two main types of garage doors that you can consider for a garage with obstructions in the ceiling space. The best one for you will depend on your personal preference, budget, and available space. </p><p>Check out <a href="http://www.garador.co.uk">www.garador.co.uk</a> to view the full range of Garador garage doors.<br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-81396840514775123972022-12-15T14:00:00.004+00:002022-12-15T14:00:00.215+00:00Have you seen our side-hinged garage door range?<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgk9GUnbjfeQCQObKWyXUWRL06HL3Zs7ooZt9piLjgJHC7cAW4xFKmDJDTS-syGy8OOADivRqas8_MbSYxvyJImnUjDGcL_8F8aBI6Xp98P5i0brFQ-lmVMh2QkTaeK40vJV7qT1t3ne9M/s803/garador_side_hinged_garage_door.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Garador Carlton Side-Hinged Garage Door" border="0" data-original-height="803" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgk9GUnbjfeQCQObKWyXUWRL06HL3Zs7ooZt9piLjgJHC7cAW4xFKmDJDTS-syGy8OOADivRqas8_MbSYxvyJImnUjDGcL_8F8aBI6Xp98P5i0brFQ-lmVMh2QkTaeK40vJV7qT1t3ne9M/s16000/garador_side_hinged_garage_door.jpg" title="Garador Carlton Side-Hinged Garage Door" /></a></div><p><br /></p><p>Developing a new product has its challenges and so our engineers have been exceptionally busy over the last 36 months or so working on the refinement of our new design of side-hinged garage door. The new design is a significant improvement on its predecessor, with features that enhance the security, user-experience and longevity of the product. There are 19 different door models to choose from, along with a selection of colours and options.<br /><br />The main principle of the side-hinged garage door has been retained, with a simple, straight-forward design that’s easy to use and two outward-opening door leafs. The door leafs come in either a 50/50 or 70/30 setup, with the latter configuration sometimes preferred for garages where large items like bikes or gardening tools are stored.<br /><br />Two new door models have been added to the range, the Windsor and the Ascot, which give homeowners the possibility of a more contemporary side-hinged garage door design. Both models come in a variety of standard sizes and a selection of 19 powder-coat paint finishes.<br /><br />The new and improved design incorporates a lengthy list of features which make for an overall better door. These include:<br /><br /><b>Enhanced 2-point locking for security.</b><br />An upgraded 2-point locking system means that the door is securely closed with two shoot-bolt latches which engage at the top and bottom of the fixed leaf. The shoot-bolt latches are operated by a flip handle, positioned centrally on the outer edge of the fixed door leaf, providing a straightforward way for it to be opened and closed without problems.<br /><br /><b>Door stays to prevent the door blowing shut during heavy winds.</b><br />There are door stays positioned at the top of the garage door frame next to each door leaf, helping to keep the door open and prevent it from blowing closed in blustery conditions. <br /><br /><b>Gas pistons for a gentle closing motion.</b><br />Gas pistons are employed as dampeners, ensuring a smooth, cushioned movement as the door is pulled or pushed to a close. Overall these make for a better user experience and a more controlled, gentle closing motion when operating the door.<br /><br /><b>Improved rubber seals on the inside of the frame to prevent drafts.</b><br />Weatherproof rubber seals are built into the door frame and run along the door stop on both the fixed and leading door leaf to prevent drafts. This feature is further enhanced by the 3-way adjustable hinges, which can be fine-tuned for a smoother door action and tighter close against the rubber seal. An aluminium threshold at the foot of the door also blocks the flow of air that can pass underneath the door. <br /><br /><b>Wider 75mm frame and concealed hinges for security.</b><br />The door is supplied pre-framed for a quick installation process and can be fitted between or behind a brickwork opening. A 75mm wide galvanised steel door frame means the door is strong and stable in its construction and having the hinges concealed inside the frame, means that they are less exposed and susceptible to burglars. From an aesthetic stand point, having hidden hinges is also better as there are no hinge knuckles protruding above the surface of the door; giving a seamless appearance across the door panel and frame.<br /><br /><b>Increased drive-through width of 64mm</b><br />Whilst the side-hinged design of garage door is an excellent solution for accessing stored equipment inside the garage, it is also often used by homeowners for garages where cars are parked inside. So the new range has been engineered with this in mind, providing an increased drive-through width of 64mm to cater for larger vehicles.<br /><br />The Garador side-hinged garage door continues to be supplied with a black plastic lever handle, which has the often overlooked benefit of being easy to open even when you have your hands full; perfect for garages that are being used to store more cumbersome tools or gardening equipment.<br /><br />Find out more about Garador’s new side hinged garage doors by calling 01935 443722 or visiting www.garador.co.uk <br /><br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-32599948758318385832022-11-22T12:12:00.009+00:002022-11-22T12:18:49.305+00:00We've updated our side-hinged installation details<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSPCIHMJ-OqAsin11jtNn1htxZL34_mpYATDgNcKLHB0a4_5A2OA0ucIXY5CNUQOSOwqG2ZsnRHMbPnLkT36sLKdsHEQqQt2uzcaXbj4-jrVS37HoSmxILdJsiy3LdPRBj4zNRnbEhn2qbwGRo43dp7ZVFKef88kMSwLiNDs_fN0uzfKvE5JCB7d4v/s600/garador_side_hinged_updated_fitting.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Updated Garador side hinged garage door installation details" border="0" data-original-height="219" data-original-width="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjSPCIHMJ-OqAsin11jtNn1htxZL34_mpYATDgNcKLHB0a4_5A2OA0ucIXY5CNUQOSOwqG2ZsnRHMbPnLkT36sLKdsHEQqQt2uzcaXbj4-jrVS37HoSmxILdJsiy3LdPRBj4zNRnbEhn2qbwGRo43dp7ZVFKef88kMSwLiNDs_fN0uzfKvE5JCB7d4v/s16000/garador_side_hinged_updated_fitting.jpg" title="Updated Garador side hinged garage door installation details" /></a></div><br /><br /><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p> </p><p></p><p> </p><p>We've updated the fitting instructions for side hinged doors.

unavoidable, please see technical information above detailing the
minimum tolerance required.

So we couldn't wait for this year's annual Macmillan Coffee Morning, which we ran last Thursday at Garador head office in Yeovil and all for a really worthwhile cause, Macmillan Cancer Support.<br /></p><p>All the cake baking enthusiasts were busy in their kitchens on Wednesday evening, baking a wide range of tasty cakes and savouries for a special coffee morning in aid of Macmillan Cancer support. The turnout was impressive, with a huge range of both traditional and personally created recipes, from meat and veggie samosas to coffee cake and even Dorset apple cakes! Yum!!!<br /></p><p>It's fair to say that the morning was a fabulous success and all of our staff were very generous, donating their time and effort to bake cakes as well as donations for the cake sale.<br /><br />We also ran a raffle with lots of prizes to help raise further funds for the charity, and so far well over £500 has been raised for the charity.

The organisers had come up with all sorts of brilliant ideas, such as a dark maze, a foam pit, an inflatable tunnel and a slippery slide so it was a real joy to take part. The obstacles were such great fun and overall made it a fantastic experience for our team of runners. The power paint section Garador sponsored involved the competitors being sprayed with various paints as they ran by.<br /><br />Everyone successfully completing the course receives a medal which was awesome and a great memento for what turned out to be a truly memorable experience. It was great to see such team spirit in what turned out to be a really fun and exciting event. <br /><br />You can donate to Yeovil Hospital by visiting <a href="https://www.justgiving.com/yeovilhospital">https://www.justgiving.com/yeovilhospital</a><br /><br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-36077170759697602572022-06-09T12:49:00.003+01:002022-12-03T13:40:20.706+00:00A revolution in roller door design<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk0xzkE99bG7iCuKz5ortK9llz7BichInqRA-9Bfdy8AtwY9uOdFeJ8_MyzkFPsoAQ4i6A60dDqPCDcIB2-FDBAsOpz_NB2oZJlyed2z5_sfmBPZD_lphqdZ7nHFhuaoxrzvBBdD92b3K05alKZiOjCStF9KQUscfm3iNGUfA4gONAHPiFsn9mYsi4/s800/K_LME4972_GAR.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="New DuraBelt anti-scratch system for GaraRoll roller doors" border="0" data-original-height="600" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhk0xzkE99bG7iCuKz5ortK9llz7BichInqRA-9Bfdy8AtwY9uOdFeJ8_MyzkFPsoAQ4i6A60dDqPCDcIB2-FDBAsOpz_NB2oZJlyed2z5_sfmBPZD_lphqdZ7nHFhuaoxrzvBBdD92b3K05alKZiOjCStF9KQUscfm3iNGUfA4gONAHPiFsn9mYsi4/s16000/K_LME4972_GAR.jpg" title="New DuraBelt anti-scratch system for GaraRoll roller doors" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p>The new and improved GaraRoll roller door has been redesigned with a new DuraBelt anti-scratch system and a new smartphone compatible bisecur radio system.<br /></p><p>Dust and dirt builds up on the surface of the <a href="https://www.garador.co.uk/garador-range/roller-garage-doors.aspx" target="_blank">roller door</a> curtain over time and this can cause abrasion on the paintwork which can lead to scratches and markings.

One of the key areas we are looking to make changes is with the packaging of our products, by removing plastic packaging as standard on our up & over garage doors.<br /><br />The packaging waste regulations are in place to ensure that businesses are responsible for the recovery and recycling of packaging waste in the UK. Whilst we cover our obligation in financial terms, we do see a need to be more responsible in our actions to proactively reduce waste. From April 2022 the UK government will introduce a new Plastic Packaging Tax for businesses which will have an impact on all of us. This should hopefully encourage the reduction in use of plastic, help to tackle plastic packaging waste and provide businesses with the right incentives to recognise the impact on the environment.<br /><br />Garador will therefore start to phase out plastic wrapping as standard on all up & over garage doors for all orders processed after 1st June 2022. Plastic protection can still be requested as an optional extra as listed in our price list. Please make it clear on all orders if you wish wrapping to be provided.<br /><br />Please visit our website for further details about our full range of products. <br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-37941872031734237562022-04-08T09:30:00.017+01:002022-04-11T09:44:19.572+01:00Removal of products from our range<p><span class="break-words"><span><span dir="ltr"></span></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxPIxMkP2t_dbHU1MVNIQdebRCnNY54vjkcZHQqMEM6oEpKJRl5At7q6N3b8hJ46e7msNvbq9j76mHJiRj_XzHIxTIQfZJRiS9LJF3jqX3T6N2m14Y9ZXPyYmt8oasd5q7p4M_HG2PbvkvXP7vbiE6qZZJH_z60f42tP5T3D7_cRndKfT37oo6naOn/s803/garador_chevron_garage_door_DISCONTINUED.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Garador Chevron up & over garage door (Traffic White RAL 9016)" border="0" data-original-height="803" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxPIxMkP2t_dbHU1MVNIQdebRCnNY54vjkcZHQqMEM6oEpKJRl5At7q6N3b8hJ46e7msNvbq9j76mHJiRj_XzHIxTIQfZJRiS9LJF3jqX3T6N2m14Y9ZXPyYmt8oasd5q7p4M_HG2PbvkvXP7vbiE6qZZJH_z60f42tP5T3D7_cRndKfT37oo6naOn/s16000/garador_chevron_garage_door_DISCONTINUED.jpg" title="Garador Chevron up & over garage door (Traffic White RAL 9016)" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p><span class="break-words"><span><span dir="ltr">After careful

Along with excellent insulation, these doors complement the designs in Garador’s garage door range, meaning homeowners can choose a matching garage door and front door design from one manufacturer. <br /><br />It’s going to be great to meet customers in person and our team of experts will be on hand each day to meet with visitors, chat about all the different aspects of garage doors and entrance doors; from choosing the right door for your project all the way through to fitting requirements, sizing and product specification. <br /><br />The show is taking place at Birmingham’s NEC between March 24th and 27th 2022, so come along and visit the Garador stand B147 in hall 9.<br /><br />You can request free tickets for the event here: <a href="http://bit.ly/33TB8ou" target="_blank">bit.ly/33TB8ou</a><br /><br /></p><p></p><br />Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-40311649077209018532022-01-06T11:53:00.005+00:002022-01-07T13:00:07.120+00:00A new year cheer for homeless charity Crisis<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg9wN-Bz_Lxp_kFjYltI_V6ItmDsO4GB5OPLB6b2edHMFbdlmKnbtgcQW-pIh68SSzDCUZbDBQ9AnmAlufRvRqTggvEN1oK-kvShZZnGI80MGE5xYONkWWQjtvkAOTxQvACk1yHnSnqETLsPPBI5BKoEZnUaTd30Q7MKQB6sECjLlnE-Y5YlpGgu-_4=s800" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Smartphone camera being used to photograph Garador garage doors" border="0" data-original-height="572" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEg9wN-Bz_Lxp_kFjYltI_V6ItmDsO4GB5OPLB6b2edHMFbdlmKnbtgcQW-pIh68SSzDCUZbDBQ9AnmAlufRvRqTggvEN1oK-kvShZZnGI80MGE5xYONkWWQjtvkAOTxQvACk1yHnSnqETLsPPBI5BKoEZnUaTd30Q7MKQB6sECjLlnE-Y5YlpGgu-_4=s16000" title="Smartphone camera being used to photograph Garador garage doors" /></a></div><br /><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>In the run up to Christmas, we worked with our customers to raise money for homeless charity, Crisis. We asked our network of stockists and installers, which stretches throughout the British Isles, to send through shots of their most recent Garador door installations and for each one we posted on Garador's <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/garador" target="_blank">Linkedin </a>and <a href="https://twitter.com/garadoruk" target="_blank">Twitter </a>pages we donated £10 to <a href="https://www.crisis.org.uk" target="_blank">Crisis</a>.<br /><br />It was great to see such enthusiasm and such a positive response from customers and thanks to their wonderful generosity, we've managed to raise £300 for the long-established homeless charity. <br /><br />The pictures sent in offered just a small glimpse of the considerable range of garage doors currently being installed across the country. It was easy to see that our up & over and sectional door models are still very popular, with a selection of photos showing their versatility in terms of designs, sizes, materials and colours. Windows in garages also featured strongly, a trend probably enhanced by people now using garages for storage, exercise and even home offices, as homeowners seek to personalise their door to suit their requirements. <br /><br />With homelessness continuing to rise in the UK, Crisis perform a vital role in supporting homeless people. They provide education, employment, housing and well-being services and work side-by-side with thousands of people to help them leave behind homelessness. The team at Garador were pleased to support such a worthwhile cause.<br /><br />Find out more about Crisis and the important work they do by visiting <a href="http://www.crisis.org.uk">www.crisis.org.uk</a></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-10882868117532734902021-12-09T14:35:00.023+00:002021-12-14T10:44:36.978+00:00New Secured by Design Sectional Garage Doors<p></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiZ9hYzs9fLyg0MqMKdVW1WegzZaVt0-m8X8wn8syn2g2W3M1Jv8Qk-4uTKLltKSCR1atmtAX4z9UwU4UhTgdEBSNgsL6Oi8v6FKb6M6d3PedVkWf_85OP9D31VytPshnaZ_jY9aFW2vGTlC-Ckpc5f0Eh2hxW9Fp_u9gd8s7mWp7cLGz9pVgPmlEer=s800"><img alt="Garador Secured by Design sectional garage doors" border="0" data-original-height="450" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEiZ9hYzs9fLyg0MqMKdVW1WegzZaVt0-m8X8wn8syn2g2W3M1Jv8Qk-4uTKLltKSCR1atmtAX4z9UwU4UhTgdEBSNgsL6Oi8v6FKb6M6d3PedVkWf_85OP9D31VytPshnaZ_jY9aFW2vGTlC-Ckpc5f0Eh2hxW9Fp_u9gd8s7mWp7cLGz9pVgPmlEer=s16000" title="Garador Secured by Design sectional garage doors" /></a></div><br /><p></p><p></p><p>Security is always an important consideration for our customers, when they are looking to purchase a new garage door. Your garage door provides an entry point into your garage, where high-value items like cars, motorbikes and tools are often stored. So we are thrilled to announce that we will be introducing Secured by Design (SBD) accreditation to our industry renowned sectional garage doors, as a free upgrade.</p><p> </p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">What qualifies for Secured by Design Status?</h3><p style="text-align: left;">To qualify for Secured by Design status, the Garador sectional garage door must meet each of the following conditions:<br /></p><ul style="text-align: left;"><li>42mm insulated premium sectional garage door (Classic uninsulated models are not eligible).</li><li>Fitted behind the opening.</li><li>No windows in any of the door sections. </li><li>Electrically operated with a GaraMatic operator.</li><li>Only official Garador parts and products must be used, and they must
be installed in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions.</li></ul><p>Once the door is installed, all that needs to be done is for the fitter
to fill in a simple form which includes the installer, customer and door
details. Garador will then send out an official Secured by Design
accreditation pack with registration label and badge.</p><p> </p><div><h3 style="text-align: left;">Anti-lift kit built into operator boom <br /></h3><p style="text-align: left;">The GaraMatic operator, which forms an important part of the Secured by Design accreditation, is engineered with an anti-lift kit to prevent forced entry. This utilises a mechanical lock built into the operator boom, and because it is mechanical the door cannot be forced open even during a power cut. Another noteworthy security feature of the GaraMatic operators is the bi-directional radio system that uses the same 128-bit encryption employed by banks for online banking security. This technology makes the system even more secure and ensures a more reliable signal and extended range. </p><p style="text-align: left;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: left;"></p><h3 style="text-align: left;">Secured by Design</h3><p style="text-align: left;">Home security remains a concern for homeowners, specifiers and housing developers alike, and there continues to be a strong demand for high-security products which offer an even greater level of protection. <br /><br />Secured by Design is renowned throughout the building industry, providing a recognised standard for high-security products that reduce crime. The Secured by Design badge is a clear indication that the product has a much higher level of security and has undergone rigorous testing to withstand an attack from a burglar.</p><p style="text-align: left;">Garador already offers a selection of steel up & over garage doors with Secured by Design accreditation, as part of its Guardian range. The addition of SBD sectional garage doors will extend the company’s SBD product offering, giving customers the possibility of ordering a garage door that’s thermally insulated and electrically automated with a GaraMatic operator. Attributes that are not currently available in the Guardian Range.<br /><br />When picking out a door design and colour, customers can choose from the full range of fully insulated Georgian and Linear designs, as well as all the standard RAL colours.<br /><br />Visit <a href="http://www.garador.co.uk">www.garador.co.uk</a> to find out more about Garador's new SBD sectional doors. </p></div><br />Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8571672533635379963.post-63765382248849729772021-11-17T11:47:00.004+00:002021-11-17T14:05:39.258+00:00Contemporary architecture and garage door design<p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigyd_gA-mq3Zquor5mpKqNeRUGgf_tGYciaGiO0XYIHXua6w1PxEsYT4pAyhe0jSbPkCi7BZlVJH_kD_OhyphenhyphenxXJS_6XR_hxr3zNUGLdC2VbyPNnpEo6YLAp409QbsJGyHCJbXiSDPDLrIk/s800/garador_sectional_garage_door_wide.jpg" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img alt="Garador Linear Large sectional garage door in Traffic White (RAL 9016)" border="0" data-original-height="543" data-original-width="800" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEigyd_gA-mq3Zquor5mpKqNeRUGgf_tGYciaGiO0XYIHXua6w1PxEsYT4pAyhe0jSbPkCi7BZlVJH_kD_OhyphenhyphenxXJS_6XR_hxr3zNUGLdC2VbyPNnpEo6YLAp409QbsJGyHCJbXiSDPDLrIk/s16000/garador_sectional_garage_door_wide.jpg" title="Garador Linear Large sectional garage door in Traffic White (RAL 9016)" /></a></div><br /><br /><p></p><p></p><p>Garador’s wide profiled and more minimalist garage doors are the perfect accompaniment to contemporary architecture. Buildings with contemporary architectural design are often characterised by their individuality, with designs that are radically different to what has come before and built using a multitude of different building materials and methods of construction. Yet they remain eye-catchingly “modern” to the uninitiated. <br /><br />Thus Garador’s more modern minimalist door designs, work well with this philosophy and their simplicity means they don’t look out of place on a completely unique design of building. The steel up & over designs of the Windsor and Ascot are compliant with both vertical and horizontal linear surroundings and work well with more free-form aspects too. The clean lines and smooth plain surfaces of the door mean they accommodate contemporary architectural design. The surface of the door panel is flat, being held together by spot welds, eliminating the need for rivets or other methods of construction that would detract from the door’s plain appearance.<br /><br />But <a href="https://www.garador.co.uk/garador-range/garage-doors.aspx" target="_blank">styles of garage door</a> with a minimalist feel are not just limited to up & over models, there are sectional garage doors that naturally appeal to contemporary architectural design as well. Given the way they are engineered, they are inherently secure and well-insulated delivering a high-quality solution that is difficult to match elsewhere. The Linear Large model in particular utilises wide open panels with a very subtle linear indentation that runs horizontally along the door marking the join between door sections. The Duragrain decors of the Linear Large model, where a decorative print is applied directly to the surface of the door, also provides further options and directions to go in. <br /><br />Mid-century modern design often seen in residential properties from the 1950s and 1960s, have helped lay the foundations for the inspiration of some of the interior and exterior design trends we see today, with sharp lines, minimal decoration, wide-open spaces and floor to ceiling windows. Buildings from the mid-20th century all the way through to the present day, exhibit traits of mid-century modern design. Today’s contemporary architectural design with its open floor plans, free form shapes, large windows and integration into the surrounding landscape are leading the way in cutting edge home design; and these are just some common characteristics of this contemporary approach to architecture in residential properties. <br /><br />The popularity of television shows like mad men or even consumer electronics products from major brands such as Apple, have oriented colour tastes towards blacks, greys, whites and generally neutral tones. The effects of popular culture can be seen in the products we buy, the clothes we wear and of course the houses we live in. An increasingly neutral colour palette, has been adopted by homeowners and architects, and so Garador have seen a notable growth in the popularity of certain colours for its garage doors like Anthracite Grey, Slate Grey and Traffic White.<br /><br />As minimalist design trends flourish in the homes and garages currently on the drawing boards of architects, it’s worth noting that it’s not just the one-off unique building styles that the Windsor, Ascot and Linear Large garage door tends to attract, but rather it lends itself to the uniformity and repetition of new build housing developments also. <br /><br />Find out more about our full range of garage doors by visiting <a href="http://www.garador.co.uk">www.garador.co.uk</a> <br /><br /><br /></p>Garadorhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/14546010161935431700noreply@blogger.com0
