Garage door replacement

[Simon]

I am in need of a replacement garage door (7'x6'6") and was after any advice that anyone could give.

I think I want a canopy (up & over) type platic coated steel or GRP (no/low maintenance). Does anywhere sell complete kits? I looked at Screwfix and was unsure what different bits I actually needed in addition to the door (frame, opening mechanism etc). B&Q don't sell garage doors when I asked.

Of course if anyone had a recommendation for a supplier and/or fitter in the Gatwick area of West Sussex, I'd be interested in that too.

Cheers! Simon

I fitted a Clopay (they seem to be the 'standard' door in the US) sectional door a few yrs ago which I bought from B&Q. I'm very happy with it (as happy as you can be with a garage door). One advantage of the sectional door is that it doesn't swing out, so you can park another car right up against it.

Thanks for the replies, chaps.
