I am about to get a double garage repaired, which will include the rebuilding of one side of the entrance.
Currently there is an old up and over door with a total brickwork opening size of 3700mm. There's a 100mm wide frame on both sides, making the actual opening width 3500mm
I am now going to have a roller door fitted but was wondering whether this width would be too much for that type of door.
To get two cars into the garage, is 3500 really needed ?
of course if this width is easily managed by the door, it would be maybe better and cheaper to reduce the left hand brick wall width, from it's current 1150mm to slightly less, then making the door a little bit wider.
Any advice would be appreciated.
thank you
