Does an up-and-over suit your Keady drive?
Border-country agri jobs, large slab roller doors are the norm. We build that into every Keady survey, not the price sheet.
On the residential side, Keady is dominated by rural cottages and farms. Spec needs to match — what works on a coastal cottage isn't right for a new-build estate.
Keady sits 45 mi from Belfast and 22 mi from our Dromore yard via the A29.
Survey, subframe, leaf, balance
- 1
Check the gear type first
Canopy and retractable frames behave differently in a Keady opening, so we identify what is there before quoting.
- 2
Measure structural opening and headroom
Up-and-over needs clear headroom above the lintel and swing room on the drive, both checked on site in BT60.
- 3
Fit to a steel or timber subframe
We renew the subframe where the old one has rotted rather than hanging a new leaf on tired timber.
- 4
Balance, lock and hand over
Spring tension set to the leaf weight, lock aligned, and manual operation demonstrated before we leave Keady.

Up-and-over questions from Keady homeowners
Q.How long does the install take?
A straight swap is a half-day. Add a couple of hours where the subframe is being renewed or the opening needs making good.
Q.How much drive space does an up-and-over door need in Keady?
The leaf swings out roughly a third of its height as it opens, so allow around 600 mm clear in front. On short Keady drives we usually recommend a roller instead.
Q.What does an up-and-over door cost fitted?
From £649 fitted for a standard single-skin steel canopy door, rising with GRP, timber and insulated leaves. Removal and disposal of your old door is included.
Q.Do you fit Georgian panelled styles?
Yes. Georgian and vertical rib remain the two most requested patterns on traditional Keady frontages, in white and woodgrain finishes.
Q.My existing door is stiff and catches. Repair or replace?
If the frame is square and only the springs, cones or rollers are worn, a repair visit fixes it. Rotted subframes and rusted bottom rails around Keady usually justify replacement.
Q.Canopy or retractable, which suits a agri buildings?
Canopy gear is simpler and leaves a third of the leaf projecting under the lintel. Retractable runs the leaf fully back on horizontal tracks, takes an operator better and suits wider Keady openings.
