Jet Black (RAL 9005) Now Available as a Standard Colour Finish on Sectional Doors

We’ve just cut the price for ordering a Garador sectional garage door in Jet Black (RAL 9005)…with these cost savings you can order a whole range of Linear or Georgian designs in Jet Black (RAL 9005) at a much lower price. Up until now, when purchasing any Garador sectional garage door in Jet Black (RAL 9005), you had to pay a surcharge from £398 as it was a Special RAL Colour and required more time consuming production processes.

With immediate effect, we have now re-classified the Jet Black (RAL 9005) colour as a Standard Colour finish and thus the surcharge for sectional doors in this colour has been substantially reduced to prices from £145 (please see table below*). This has been made possible by an improvement in production processes, enabling us to deliver the same durable finish, at a lower production cost. The table below gives typical price variations which we are now able to pass on to you.

For further information on this finish or any other Garador product please visit the Garador website or contact the call team here in Yeovil.

Gas Prices Drop – But could you be saving money on your energy bills elsewhere?

Earlier this week British gas stated that they will drop their prices by 5% and lots of other energy suppliers have followed suit, so that could help to save some money on your heating bills. But you could be saving money elsewhere, not just by installing renewables such as solar panels or air source heat pumps. But by insulating your home – walls, roof, windows and of course doors. We’ve got front doors and garage doors covered, with a range of super thermally efficient designs in our FrontGuard front doors and Sectional garage door ranges. FrontGuard have 46mm thick high-density insulating foam and FrontGuard Plus have 65mm thick high density insulating foam. When you combine that with a 42mm Garador sectional garage door, you’re quids in!

Resolution...

A belated happy new year to all of our customers and stockists. Another year down for the count and the streets are filling up with joggers and exercise fanatics who will probably slip up in a few days and realise there is just no way that they can keep up with their new regimes. Perhaps you’ll join a ‘gym’ or a ‘gime’ as Homer Simpson calls it, or maybe you’ll convert your garage into a gym? Our sectional doors are perfect for home gyms and are insulated to keep the warmth inside! In 2015, the possibilities are endless… :o)

Garador FrontGuard FGS 850 front doorIt’s been a bit chillier this week and certainly feels like winter is on the way. If your front door has seen better days or you are working on a new building project, then the FrontGuard Plus range could be a great solution and the perfect complement to your Garador garage door. The door panel itself is filled with highly efficient insulating foam. We’ve increased the insulation from 46mm to a whopping 65mm, on FrontGuard Plus doors to help keep warmth in, and more importantly, energy bills down.

Have you seen our new Cedar and Elizabethan timber garage doors?

Picture of Addlington Cedar timber garage door on homeWe have two ranges for our timber up & over doors, Cedar doors which are made from solid red cedar as the name implies, and Elizabethan doors which are made from a combination of solid red cedar and plywood. We’ve just added four new doors to the range:

The new Countryman, Hampton and Addlington doors are constructed from solid red cedar and offer more choice and more options when trying to choose a door that will match your home’s architectural features.

Grown in cooler climates, the cedar wood has developed self-protective qualities to protect against temperature related stresses. It is useful as a home building material where humidity, temperature and cracking are common problems. Whilst many types of wood warp when subjected to moisture; cedar stays straight and flat and should last a lifetime if properly maintained. This makes it ideal for a garage door. Cedar wood doors can be stained and painted and not lose their beautiful grained appearance. All Garador timber doors come with a base stain as standard. A choice of stains and paint finishes are also available to enhance the appearance and appeal.

We have also added a new style of door to its Elizabethan range called the Grantham; which combines solid red cedar and a plywood backing to offer a different style of design without compromising on value for money. Please visit the Garador website for more information.
