Entrance Upgrade in Ashington – From Timber Gates to Electric Roller DoorBefore & After Transformation
Project Overview
A recent installation in Ashington involved replacing a set of ageing timber entrance gates with a modern white electric roller door.
The original gates were used to secure an entrance way. Over time, they had become worn, less secure, and inconvenient to use. The aim was to create a more secure, practical, and modern solution for everyday access.
The Challenge
The existing timber gates were no longer fit for purpose:
- Weathered and deteriorating timber
- Reduced security for the entrance
- Manual opening and closing
- Limited durability in all weather conditions
The customer wanted a secure, easy-to-use entrance solution that would also improve the overall appearance.
The Solution
To meet these requirements, a white electric roller door was installed across the entrance.
Key Features:
- Electric operation for quick and easy access
- Secure, enclosed design for added protection
- Compact roller mechanism to maximise space
- Durable, low-maintenance materials
- Clean, modern finish to enhance the property
This type of installation is ideal for entrance ways, alleyways, and access points where traditional gates may fall short.
The Result
The completed installation delivered a clear upgrade:
- A secure and fully enclosed entrance
- Effortless operation with electric control
- A modern, tidy appearance
- Improved durability compared to timber gates
The new roller door provides long-term reliability while significantly improving both security and convenience.
