Garador Limited Reviews 

An excellent door, have had it for 10 years, and very helpful and responsive service/admin team. Very satisfied.

I purchased two new remotes from Garador recently. I had trouble pairing them with my existing remote (18 years old). Being in my mid eighties I contacted the Technical Dept as per the instructions. Their technician, Wayne, was most helpful at guiding us through the process.My wife and I would like to register our appreciation for his patience and understanding during the process

Ordered an electric garage door months ago. When it was fitted a month ago it was the wrong style door with faulty paintwork. The fitter noticed the poor quality of the finish immediately and reported this to the company. We were given the choice of; keep the wrong door and have the paint touched up with full guarantee and 5% discount, or wait another 3 months for the correct style door. We decided to keep the door and have the paint finish rectified. The company have just sent the painters here with the wrong colour paint! This company is incompetent, unprofessional and their manager wouldn't even speak to my husband on the phone when he called them to complain about their mistakes. He's a patient man, but all these mistakes and incompetence have become very trying. If you are considering a new garage door, I would recommend you go elsewhere. There are better and more professional companies out there, which I'm sure would do a better job than these cowboys.

Up and over metal garage door installed approx. 2 years ago. Rust is forming on the outside at each point from top to bottom of the door where the face of the door is attached to the metal frame behind It seems as though tiny screws? are now just sticking out above the surface of the door face and therefore rusting. The door itself is flimsy and not fit for purpose. AVOID!

The motor failed within the warranty period, but they refused to honour it because the plug had been removed and the cable shortened. Who puts a plug socket on the garage roof?? It only had about a meter of cord to start with.

Had 3 roller doors fitted less than 3 yrs ago, all 3 have had minor problems. However one completely jammed in the open position. Had to remove the cover to unjam it.
Rang Garador to be told that it would cost £125 for the engineer to come out and fix a broken part on the door mechanism. Had I known this charge when purchasing I would have gone elswhere. So buyers beware if there’s a problem even though it’s under warranty it will cost you to get it fixed.

I had a garrador fitted 18 months ago. I needed to close the door last week but,due to an electrical problem of my own making, it would not close. I therefore attempted to close it manually. However the key to unlock the control panel did not work. Garrador have been extremely helpful and today and today an engineer came and installed a new fitting. Top marks for efficiency

New garage door fitted by approved agent about two years ago and it's starting to rust ! Garador refuse to honour the warranty saying it's not covered. Agents have chased them but they wont budge. Strongly suggest you go elsewhere if considering s spending a lot of money on a new door

I had lost two remote controls for our Garador operated garage doors. I bought two replacements from a third party, but couldn't make them work. I phoned Garador who were very friendly and helpful and helped me to make the remotes work very quickly.

I am most impressed with Garador: they are knowledgeable, helpful, efficient and competent. That just says it!

I have just finally had my garage doors fitted, the fitting company were very good and I cannot fault them but the fact that it took 3 sets of doors to get it right is poor. The fact that this company allowed the same issue to get through their quality control is unacceptable. Would I buy from this company again, absolutely not. And the customer care is non existent. Whoever buys from them in the future I wish you the best and hope it is 'right first time' as it should be.

Shane and Ellis are consummate professionals. Punctual, efficient and all with a smile even during the storm. If you can get these gents you will be happy.
Thank you both so much.

Well if I could give no stars for after care then these would come top.The door is less than 2 years old appx.Yet it's already showing signs of rust and wear under the paint and its in a state. These doors apparently come with a 10 year gurantee but hidden in the small print because you would automatically think it covers the finish yet their is a get out clause it doesn't so in effect it's worthless but why not state this in the beginning instead of hiding it in the small print .Well as far as I'm concerned I wouldn't reccomend this company.Whats the point in purchasing a product that's going to rust in a comparatively short time making it unattractive as this is the first thing you see.Even the door fitter was unaware of this as I involved him with my complaint and as far as im aware he contacted the company and he also noticed then how poor the finish on the door was even in places the top coat was missed completely and same as me he got nowhere.My advice always read the small print I'm a authorised member of quite a few consumer web sites and I will be thinking of writing further reviewsThe date of the experiences is approximately as the hassle ive had getting nowhere.Ive noticed there is a few more negative reviews on this site about this company and good luck if you have the same problems as me but I don't expect a reply or even a rectification of this as it would need removing and completely stripped and coated properly so it doesn't rust .

Hi there, I highly recommend the team from Garador. The process from start to finish was seamless. The technician who did the work were on time, friendly and did an amazing job.

Door is 14 months old, corrosion now starting to break through paint and showing as white spots everywhere.
Garador saying not covered by warranty.
Avoid this company charge a fortune for inferior goods.

We had a Garadoor / Hormann Sectional Door installed in 2022. The critical factor in our choice was this door has a U-Value and would seal our garage as effectively as a door or window. In the first year this appeared to be the case. There were no droughts coming in to the garage, the ambient temperature of the garage had improved. Unfortunatly this is no longer the case. The garage is droughty and cold again. The original installer and a different registered installer have both said there's nothing wrong with the door. So now im left with a £2k plus door that doesn't keep the cold out and i'm being told there's nothing wrong with it. Service manager at garadoor has been dismissive of my problem. Poor experience and I'd definitely encourage people to look elsewhere if they need a door to seal their garage properly.

We've been buying Garador's products since the end of 2022 and whilst there have been ups and downs, the thing that matters most is that Garador's customer service throughout has been phenomenal. As a manufacturer ourselves, we understand that things cannot always be perfect but it's really important to know that when things do go wrong, Garador will do their absolute best to resolve any issues in a timely and efficient manner.

After supplying various other types of garage door, we can safely say that Garador Up & Overs are the best that are on the market in terms of quality and innovation. We plan to continue using Garador for many years to come!

Huge shout out to all of the super helpful staff in the office and our ASM (Kelly) for doing a great job.

Unfortunately my garage door got stuck down and it wouldn’t go up . Trying hand devices etc. siren was screaming to I had to turn electric off. Tried for nearly 3 weeks to contact them with no answer just told they would phone me back ( recorded message). Managed to contact eventually and was told engineer would contact me . 3 days and no response. So with heavy heart I write this bad review. Don’t like doing this but we have had several frosts and car iced up. Fortunately car outside. If was inside would have cost me several days work.

I am overall satisfied with the product itself.

But after a certain amount of time, the door opener motor unit has started to flash 6 times for several minutes, whenever I use the door, to remind me to book maintenance service.

It is super annoying and you need a service tech to reset it.

I HATE this business practice of forcing customer to spend more money.

If it was just a reminder that I can reset myself - I would appreciate.
But this cutthroat tactic is not ok.

I have used Garador as a main supplier for many years. The product they manufacture is well made and I rarely have any issues. When I do however, the important part is that they are solved no questions asked. The team, from the helpfulness of the sales department to knowledgableness of the Warranty and technical department, are happy to help in any way. I have fitted other manufacturers of garage doors,Garador is not the cheapest, however the product and customer services from Garador is always better than all the rest.

We have dealt with Garador for over 50 years, we always receive excellent products with 5* customer service.
Garador is our number one supplier!
