01

Design & options

Creating the right entrance.

Are RK Auto garage doors made to measure?

Yes. Each entrance is specified around the opening, selected collection and architectural requirements of the property. Accurate measurements and technical checks ensure the finished door fits and performs as intended.

Can my garage door match my entrance door?

Selected finishes, colours and architectural details can be coordinated across garage and entrance doors, creating a consistent exterior with one clear design language.

How do I choose between Solid and Vision collections?

Solid designs prioritise a clean, private and seamless appearance. Vision designs introduce glazed sections for natural light and a stronger connection between the garage interior and the architecture. Our team can help compare both approaches for your property.

What premium finishes are available?

The range can include refined colours, wood-inspired textures, architectural surfaces and selected premium finishes. Availability depends on the chosen collection and project specification, and samples can be reviewed before final confirmation.

Can I add glazing while maintaining privacy?

Yes. Depending on the collection, glazing can be configured with different levels of transparency, tint and visual privacy while still bringing natural light into the garage.

02

Technology & security

Effortless control. Reassuring protection.

Can the door be controlled from a smartphone?

Compatible systems can include connected access, remote operation and door-status monitoring. The available features depend on the selected motor, controller and connectivity package.

What happens during a power cut?

The system can be specified with a manual release solution, and selected configurations may support backup options. The most suitable arrangement depends on how the garage is accessed and whether it has another entrance.

How does the door detect an obstacle?

Modern safety systems monitor the movement of the door and can include obstacle detection and safety sensors. During commissioning, the complete system is adjusted and tested for controlled operation.

What security options can be included?

Security can combine a robust door construction, secure motor control and carefully selected access methods such as remotes, keypads and connected user access. The final specification is tailored to the property and intended use.

03

Installation & service

Professional support at every stage.

Do you provide professional installation?

Yes. Our coordinated service can cover technical preparation, fitting, alignment, commissioning, safety checks and final handover of the complete entrance system.

How should I prepare before installation?

The opening and working area should be accessible and free from stored items. Any project-specific requirements, including electrical preparation or building work, are discussed before the installation date.

How long does installation take?

Installation time varies with the size, collection, access conditions and complexity of the project. A clearer programme is provided once the opening and complete specification have been reviewed.

What maintenance does the door require?

Regular visual checks, appropriate surface cleaning and scheduled inspection of moving and safety components help protect long-term performance. Care guidance is provided for the selected finish and system.

How do I arrange a service visit?

Contact our support team with your details, door information and a brief description of the issue. Photographs or a short video can also help the team prepare for the visit.

Are the doors designed for changing weather conditions?

The entrance can be specified with insulated panels, perimeter sealing and weather-conscious detailing. Final performance depends on the selected system, the building opening and correct installation.
