Conversion of Dual Barn Doors into a Single Garage Door

Conversion of Dual Barn Doors into a Single Large Door

Location:

North Bristol

Client Request:

The client wanted to change their two separate garage doors into one large door to make it easier to park their cars.

Challenges:

One of the significant challenges in this project was the existing brickwork above the garage doors. The brickwork needed to be carefully managed to maintain the structural integrity of the garage. Additionally, the removal of the central brick column required precise work to avoid any damage to the surrounding structure.

Work Done

Initial Assessment and Planning:

Conducted a thorough site inspection to understand the existing structure.

Developed a detailed plan to remove the central support column and reinforce the area above the garage doors.

Structural Preparation:

Removed the two existing doors and the central support column.

Installed temporary supports to maintain the integrity of the structure during the work.

Reinforcement:

Reinforced the area above the garage opening with a strong Wooden beam to ensure stability and support for the new door.

Installation:

Fitted a custom-made, large garage door, ensuring it was properly aligned and operated smoothly.

Applied finishing touches to blend the new installation seamlessly with the existing structure.

Result

The conversion was completed successfully, providing the client with a wide, single garage door that significantly improved the ease of parking and accessing their vehicles. The new door enhanced both the functionality and appearance of the garage.

Before and After

Before:

The garage had two separate wooden doors, making it less convenient for modern vehicle access. Each door was narrow, requiring precise manoeuvring and limiting the types of vehicles that could be parked inside.

After:

A single, large door was installed, providing a modern and functional upgrade. The new door offers a wide, unobstructed entry, making it much easier to park larger vehicles and improving the overall convenience and usability of the garage space.
