Some steel door panels have
non-removable side weather
strips which must be folded over
carefully using a hammer to make way for the new Arcadian roller
plates & weather strips, whilst most doors have the side weather
strips secured with 'pop rivets' which can be 'drilled-out'
quickly with a 4.5mm drill |

Please Note: After conversion to horizontally

approximately 40cm to 50cm more than it did with the original vertically
tracked canopy mechanism so please check your garage for obstructions
such as an RSJ or gas meter etc. before undertaking this conversion. |

D.I.Y. customers say !
I
purchased two Arcadian AP100 door gear kits to convert a pair of Garador canopy doors.
It's good quality gear and you don't need a degree in rocket science to
fit it. Then I ordered two Seip TM60 remote controlled electric
operators. Again, excellent equipment which was straight forward to
fit and is wonderfully effective. I encountered a couple of minor
problems along the way (with my particular installation, not with
the equipment) and a phone call to Nick at Amourelle had it all
sorted in seconds. Amourelle's prompt delivery and customer service
are second to none. It is refreshing to find a company with such
'old fashioned' customer value! - Jeff Vernon; Doncaster, S. Yorks. |

I ordered
a Seip electric door opener and an Arcadian door gear conversion kit
for my canopy type garage door late on Thursday evening, the goods
were delivered next day 11.30!! I received plenty of help and
advice. And there can’t be many businesses that say ”If you are
doing the work over the weekend and need help, then just give me a
call on my mobile” All in all a great service.
