Do you require help to identify the make of your garage door?

Q: How do I find out the make / model of my Garage Door?

A: 1. Firstly look on the garage door handle, this usually gives you the manufacturers name,
ie, Henderson, Cardale, Garador etc.

2. If there is no name on the lock, then look inside the garage, usually on the inside of the garage door there is a manufacturers lable, ie, Wessex, Marley, Westland etc

3. If you still cannot find any name or manufacturers labels on the garage door, you can take a photo of the garage door lock/handle inside and out and then e-mail the photo to me and I will try to identify the garage door for you!
