    Hi all,

    I have been asked to quote for fitting a up-and-over garage door.

    Are these generally easy to fit? If yes, then is it a 2 man job as I am a one-man-band?

    I spoke with a chippy neighbour and he reckons they are dead easy.

    Any thoughts appreciated.

    Ta.

    Generally up and over doors are better fitted by two people. If not, unless the garage has a side door how will you see that your clearances are equal at the top and either side if your stuck inside and cant get out to have a look. Get a mate to help, you,ll be done in half the time.

    Cheers J1959,

    I have not been to look at the garage door yet (it's a rental one where I do work for the landlord), but from what I recall its not a garage as such ie it's on the external wall opening into the yard.

    May enlist help as it will undoubtedly be easier.

    Thanks again.
