Our DIY roller garage doors are a great choice for anyone in Lambeth who’s confident taking on a self-install project-but we don’t recommend going it completely alone. The installation process is straightforward, but having a second person to help measure and install is strongly advised. For example, when measuring the width of your garage opening, an extra pair of hands ensures accuracy and increases the chances of a perfect fit.
On installation day, two people are essential-not just for convenience, but for safety. Lifting, aligning, and securing the door requires coordination, and going solo isn’t advisable. Most installs take around 4-6 hours using standard tools like a drill with driver bits, a step ladder, and the fixings provided. Before you start, make sure everything is ready to hand to keep things running smoothly. With our easy-to-follow guides and step-by-step video support, you’ll be fully prepared to fit your TWF garage door confidently.
Our detailed measuring guide walks you through the process. Alternatively, review our DIY order form, which clearly shows the required measurements with visual examples. You can also use our "Garage Door Builder" tool in the main menu for guidance.
