Garage Doors in Mill Hill
Automation, Supply, Fitting & Repairs
Mill Hill divides sharply. The Ridgeway, Highwood Hill, Uphill Road and the roads bordering Totteridge carry very large detached houses on wide plots, and Mill Hill Village around the old school and the pond is a conservation area of older houses. Mill Hill East and the Broadway are 1930s semis with single garages, and Millbrook Park is new build.
We work across all of it and have done for decades. The right door depends entirely on which Mill Hill you are in.
Local Knowledge
The Ridgeway, the Village, and the Broadway
Around The Ridgeway and the Totteridge border the garages are wide, integral and often two or three abreast, and the doors are big insulated sectionals with powerful operators. Our work here is largely servicing: keeping heavy doors balanced, replacing operators after a long life, adding handsets, and the occasional broken spring, which on a door this size is a job for us and not for the owner.
In Mill Hill Village the conservation area rules and the age of the houses point to timber. Cedar Doors make solid doors to the opening that suit a period frontage, and a side hinged pair automates with a hinge kit. Check with Barnet council before ordering if the house is listed or the road is covered by an Article 4 direction.
The 1930s semis have the classic single garage down the side with an up and over door, and here the sensible move is nearly always to automate the existing door if it is sound. A Hormann Promatic at £360 plus VAT with £100 fitting is a fraction of the cost of a new automated door, and the job is done in a morning.
