Garage doors for Kew's mix of homes and workshops
Kew is about 4 km east of Sandton City. In Kew, a residential garage often stands near a commercial property with a large roller shutter door. This mix means the demands on garage doors and motors vary significantly, from a family home needing quiet, secure access to a workshop on a road like Arkwright Avenue requiring a durable door for frequent deliveries.
Our approach is to match the equipment to the property's function. For Kew's business premises, this often means a solid steel roll-up door paired with a motor designed for high-cycle industrial use. For a nearby home, a quiet, insulated sectional door offers better security and convenience. We assess the entire system, starting with the door's balance, to make sure it meets the specific needs of the property.
For business owners in Kew, operational reliability is important. A door that fails to open can halt deliveries and disrupt work. We focus on preventative maintenance for commercial doors and fit motors with battery backup suited to their weight and usage. When you take over a new unit or after staff changes, we secure the premises by clearing all old remote codes.

Questions from Kew
Our workshop's roller shutter door is very slow and noisy. Do we need a whole new door?
Not always. The noise and speed could be from worn parts or a motor that is not suited to the door's weight and use. We assess the door's condition and balance first. Often, servicing the door and fitting a suitable industrial motor is enough to restore proper operation.
Can our old tip-up garage door be automated?
Yes, most older tip-up doors can be automated if they are in good working condition and properly balanced. We first check the door's springs, hinges, and overall structure to make sure it can be motorised safely and reliably.
