The new products include the Series 3 of the popular and highly rated Hormann Supramatic garage door operator and the new sleek looking handsets and keypads.

The Hormann Supramatic E Series 3 Electric Garage Door Opener and Hormann Gate Operators will not come with the New BiSecur bi-directional radio system. This basically means you do not need to go outside in bad weather conditions to check if your garage door is open or closed. The small LED on the new handsets will show the status of the door i.e. opened or closed

The new BiSecur radio system also provides:

• 128-bit encryption with the same high security level as in online banking
• Interference-resistant radio signal with a stable range
• Backwards compatible with earlier versions

And one of the most popular aspects of the new handsest will be that they run on AAA batteries – so changing your battery in the handset will no longer be a problem finding that not very popular 6V or 12V battery.

The new Hormann 2 and 4 button handsets come in either Piano Black or White and can be seen at the bottom of this post.

Hormann have also announced the release of new looking keypad switches. These will replace the old FCT10B and FCT3B Keypads (see images below).

Woodrite Balmoral Range

The Balmoral Range do not use steel bracing across the back of the door making the back of the door as attractive as the front.

With such a multitude of choices on the market, it seems like taking the easy option of buying the first one you see is also the right option. In fact, this could be a grievous error. This will only become apparent after buying a cheap garage door only to find that a criminal has easily penetrated it and has either stolen the car or badly damaged it whilst making off with other items stored in the garage. It’s important to know that ‘cheap’ doesn’t necessarily mean poor quality just like it also doesn’t mean value for money. If you have saved a hundred pounds or more on a door only to find the above scenario happen to you, you wouldn’t feel like you got a bargain would you?

It’s all about buying a door be it electric or manual (electric is recommended) that is suited to your particular need. If you buy a digital camera for example but don’t intend on using it that often, then you will not bother buying a professional camera as its extra features will be unnecessary. You can perhaps get away with a cheap garage door if you don’t intend on using it much. If your car is parked inside the garage or is out most of the day and you only use it periodically, then perhaps you can avoid unnecessary expense. But if you use your garage frequently, a cheap door may not stand up well to the wear and tear of constant opening.

That being said, you need to look online because there are an enormous variety of garage doors in the UK with companies falling over themselves to get you the best deal. You could say that it’s a buyers market now, so expect to find garage doors prices UK to be much lower than you anticipated. If you can afford it, try and get a custom built door because nothing protects your car better whilst looking classy than something that is tailor made for you. Rather than having a generic sized door, you can get one that fits your garage perfectly.

Never underestimate what a garage door can do for you. Your garage is designed to be a safe haven for your vehicle but this is only possible by buying a door that is durable and of high quality. You should be able to find great garage door prices in the UK but this doesn’t mean that you have to sacrifice when it comes to quality. The security of you car is the most important thing, don’t cut corners or you will regret it later.

The cost depends entirely on what you’re looking for of course. If you’re looking for a door made of hardwood for example you can expect to pay an awful lot more than if you buy one made from aluminium for example. When choosing a material, you need to take into account more than just garage doors prices, you also have to consider the weather and your children’s activities. Wooden doors may not be a good idea in areas where the temperature changes rapidly. And aluminium garage doors are not the best choice if you have children who like to play with a football in the driveway as these doors dent easily.

Then you have the issue of design. Garage doors prices of doors that have fancy designs such as glass windows to enable you to see outside when the door is closed will cost extra. Also, electric garage doors will naturally be more expensive than flip-up type doors. As long as you buy an electric door that is reliable, you will get better value for money than any other type of garage door. They offer better security and are virtually impossible to open without the remote control. One problem with them of course is the fact that they could get stuck halfway up leaving you with an awkward situation until the company comes to fix it.

If you are looking to save money then perhaps you could attempt to install it yourself. There are a multitude of DIY kits on the market. This will enable you to save on installation costs but is not recommended if you are only a mere novice in the world of DIY. It is not easy and if you purchase the wrong size door for example you could find yourself out of pocket. You will definitely need a professional for electric garage doors and it would be foolhardy to even attempt to install these yourself.

So try not to completely ignore the garage when you are fixing up your home. Garage doors prices are quite low these days but know precisely what it is that you are looking for. Remember, doors made from wood cost more than aluminium but they don’t dent as easily. Electric garage doors are also a viable option and protect your car well and only attempt DIY if you have the requisite skills.

You can generally choose between a trio of automatic garage doors, chain driven, screw driven or belt driven. Those on a budget may opt for the chain driven door because it is the least expensive. The downside is the fact that they produce a lot of noise in comparison to the other two. Screw driven doors are probably a better purchase because their noise level is much lower and they are almost equal in terms of cost. The belt driven version makes by far the least amount of noise and runs the smoothest of the three but it is by far the most expensive.

The convenient aspects of automatic garage doors should be obvious. Being able to open them from a distance is a fantastic comfort if the weather is extremely bad. Having to open a garage door manually under heavy rain is not a pleasant task. Furthermore, anyone who is infirm may not be able to open the door as they can be quite heavy. They are very easy to lock and are extremely difficult for a thief to bypass. If automatic garage doors are locked down correctly, it is virtually impossible for anyone to penetrate them without a code or remote control.

Those in opposition to these type of garage doors will point out that remote controls require batteries and when these run out you cannot automatically close the doors which is most inconvenient. This is not really much of an issue as you can simply replace the batteries if you think they have been used for a long time. A more serious problem is that of mechanical failure. In this instance, prevention is key and can be achieved by regularly checking to see that all parts are running smoothly. Repairing automatic garage doors can be expensive, but most companies will offer you a warranty so if your door malfunctions within this time, they will swiftly send around their experts to rectify the problem.

There can be no doubt, that despite any drawbacks automatic garage doors may have, they are still a vast improvement on manual ones. Any problems that you may have with them can be easily fixed and they offer the kind of protection and convenience that should make them an essential purchase.
