How it works . . .

A roller door is installed behind the opening thus maximising the drive-through width and height of your garage.  The door is suspended above the head using specially designed laser-cut galvanised steel brackets.  Strong aluminium guides are fitted to the brickwork to allow the door to roll easily up and down.  The door rolls vertically upwards around a drum with no out-swing so you can park your car right up to the door and make full use of the space inside your garage.

Tilt-a-dor’s roller door is the result of twenty years of engineering development.  It’s the added features that make it one of the most technologically advanced doors available.  Please check our
installation requirements to ensure your garage is suitable for a roller door. 

   

Our most popular garage door . . .

Excellent value for money - believe it or not the roller door is the least expensive garage door available!  As we manufacture the doors locally we are able to keep our costs as low as possible so we can offer you a quality garage door at an affordable price.  We can also offer a supply only service for collection from our showroom - please contact us for pricing details.

Performance - a powerful steel spring balancing mechanism housed inside the roll allows for quiet and easy roller operation.  Simply push the door up and pull down again.  For safety and maximum performance, the multiple spring system ensures that the door is perfectly balanced at all points throughout the door cycle.  In the unlikely event of a spring breaking, the door will continue to operate satisfactorily and will meet the safety requirements as detailed in the EN 1324-1 standards.

Classic design - roller garage doors are available in a contemporary horizontal ribbed design in a choice of 10 colours.

Plastisol coated - our roller doors are made of premium grade galvanised steel coated on the exterior side with a durable HP200 Plastisol PVC based finish which is available in a choice of 10 colours.  The protective finish means you never have to paint your garage door again.   An occasional wipe down with a damp cloth will keep the door in top condition.  

New aluminium guides - the guides are made of extruded aluminium which provides a highly finished surface for the door curtain to travel in. The extrusion is more resistant to the build up of dirt and corrosion by the elements than traditional steel guides.  These thick aluminium guides provide an incredible sturdy channel for housing the door curtain and add a high quality touch to the door.  The guides have a thick profile with safer rounded edges thereby eliminating sharp edges.

New brackets - we have re-designed the brackets which are now made of galvanised steel, laser cut for a high quality finish and folded to give a remarkable strength.

New lock bar covers - we put safety first.  All doors are now supplied with locking hole bar covers. These are placed on the outside of the guide to cover the holes in the guide so that no one can put their fingers in through the hole and risk injury as the door is closed.

Low maintenance and high reliability - no cables, no external springs, no ceiling tracks.  No greasing or oiling is required; simply wipe clean the guides for easy roller action.  We recommend cleaning the guides regularly to ensure they are dirt-free and to allow your roller door to move up and down freely without obstruction.  The exterior of the door may be cleaned using warm water and a soft cloth.  Never use detergent, abrasive or solvent based cleaners as these may cause damage to the door surface.

Maximum opening size - because the door sits behind the opening the passage height and width are not constricted which is particularly important if you have a high or wide vehicle.  The roller door does not need a wooden frame which typically reduces the drive-through width by 6". 

Space saving - a roller door takes up minimal space in your garage.  There are no tracks or springs along the ceiling so the garage looks more spacious. 


Extra parking
- the door rolls vertically upwards around a drum with no out-swing on opening or closing so you can make full use of space inside and outside your garage.  This is particularly important if you have a short driveway or wish to park your car close to the garage door.

Security - factory fitted dual horizontal locking bars secure the door to the full-height aluminium guides making the roller door very secure. Our doors are supplied with 40mm aluminium guides as standard for increased security.

Easy inside and outside locking - convenient waist high key locking from inside or outside your garage.  Each door is supplied with two keys.

No wooden frame required - a roller garage door sits behind the opening of the garage eliminating the need for a wooden frame and giving you maximum drive-through width.  And you don’t need to worry about your frame rotting!

Warranty - Tilt-A-Dor Ltd has over 20 years experience of garage doors. Our roller doors are made by our own production team in our local factory and we provide a comprehensive two year warranty to ensure your roller garage door lives up to our high standards for material, workmanship and installation. 


Choice of colour and finish

Manufactured in hardwearing Plastisol coated galvanised steel, the roller door needs no painting and is available in a range of 10 stylish colours on the exterior face - white, black, vandyke brown, mahogany, golden oak, juniper green, olive green, merlin grey, goosewing grey and mushroom.  The roller door is neutral grey on the inside.

Mahogany and golden oak have a woodgrain effect finish and are designed to complement mahogany or golden oak windows and frames. All other colours are supplied in a contemporary leathergrain effect finish.

An occasional wipe down with a damp cloth will keep the door in top condition. (We will be happy to post steel colour samples upon request.)
