There are a number of things you need to remember when measuring your garage door:

  • Width
    Measure from brick to brick in three places, ignoring frames
  • Height
    Measure from the floor to the bottom of the lintel (horizontal support across the top of the door) in two places
  • Pillar width
    Measure from the brick face to the returning wall
  • Motor side
    This is the side that is usually closest to your power socket from inside looking out of your garage
  • Top roll height
    Measured from the bottom of the lintel to the first joist or your ceiling

As we stock and supply a range of garage door sizes, it is important to know which one you need before you purchase. Our garage door buying guide can be incredibly helpful in ensuring you have all the correct measurements and specifications.
