Killarney Gardens is newer light industrial on the West Coast side — distribution, trade counters and storage on open ground with very little shelter.

What we see in Killarney Gardens

Exposure is the defining feature. This is open West Coast ground: salt off Table Bay and the South-Easter with nothing to break it. We galvanise heavily and seal cut edges as standard, and on wide bay doors we fit wind locks and brace to the span. A large curtain here without wind locks will work its way out of the guides, and we have replaced enough to say that plainly.

The duty side is ordinary trade-park work: bearings and slat gauge from the cycle count, motor rated for the movements, bottom rail built heavier because delivery vehicles clip it. Access and yard space are generally good, which makes these efficient jobs once the specification is right.

Getting on site in Killarney Gardens

Access and yard space are generally good, which helps on openings this size. The survey covers the reveal, the fixing substrate, the cycle count and the exposure. We want to know what moves through the opening as well as how often, because a forklift mast changes the clearance you need.

Motors, backup and load shedding

Automation here is specified from the duty cycle and the environment together. We rate the motor to the movements the door actually makes rather than to its size, fit heavier bearings, and protect the control gear against the conditions in the bay. Backup matters because a trade counter that cannot open is a counter that is not trading.

Repairs on any make

We repair any make and we work to your trading hours rather than our schedule. The common failures here are bearings worn by a duty cycle heavier than the door was built for, bottom rails clipped by delivery vehicles, and motors that have been running at their limit for years. We carry the frequent failures on the vehicle so a repair is one visit.

What it costs

We quote from a measured survey and the survey is free anywhere in the metro. What moves the price is the size of the opening, the slat gauge the job actually needs, whether it is motorised, the corrosion specification your address genuinely requires, wind locks and bracing where the opening is exposed, and whether the reveal needs making good first. We itemise those rather than handing you one number, so you can see what you are paying for and take out anything you do not want. A rough width and height over the phone is enough for a ballpark; we confirm it on site before anything is built.

How soon we can be there

Breakdowns in Killarney Gardens are attended same-day wherever we can reach you, and our teams work the metro every day. A door that will not close is treated as urgent. For new work the survey is normally within a day or two of your call, manufacture takes a few working days because every curtain is built to your measurements at our own works, and installation is a morning for a single and most of a day for a double or a wide opening with automation.

Getting a quote in Killarney Gardens

Send us the opening width and height — and on older stock, the width at the top and at the bottom if you can get both — along with a photo of the opening from a few metres back. Tell us roughly how far you are from the sea while you are at it, because that decides the finish. From there we book the free measured survey in Killarney Gardens, confirm the sizes ourselves, and put a fixed price in writing with the corrosion specification itemised. Nothing is built until you have agreed that price.
