About Us

Working for Garage Door Suppliers, manufacturers & distributors, both in sales & installation. Our experience in Garage Doors is immense. Our business owner, John Collier, started working in the garage door industry when he left school in 1980 at the tender age of 17.

He began working alongside PC Henderson – leading UK manufacturers of up-and-over garage doors at the time. There he started to learn about all aspects of the doors and their installations.

Garage Door Installation Company

With his willingness to learn and his natural ability, he soon progressed and was appointed National Sales Manager with another leading garage door supplier. The role included training installation & fitting garage doors to teams of installers.

Alongside, heading up the nationwide sales force for UK garage door installations, he very quickly became a well-respected figure with other garage door companies.

Thus, after working in this position for several years he was approached by a large European manufacturer of garage door remote control systems & home automation.

Garage Doors Suppliers

In 1996 John was appointed as UK Sales Director. He used his contacts within the industry to secure an exclusive supply contract with the largest UK manufacturer- Henderson Garage Door Supplier. His new career was challenging, traveling the length & breadth of the country to demonstrate new remote-control door systems and new automation technology.

Garage Doors Specialist

Above all providing training for new garage door installers and other engineers meant he was able to build great relationships all over the country which he still uses today. Therefore, with all this experience in the garage door industry.

It was inevitable that sooner or later John would tire of working for a large organisation and in May 2005 he decided to use all the knowledge he had gained to set up his own company. Alexandra Garage Doors was started, using the name of his daughter as the company title.

    “A first class professional job from start to finish by Alexandra Garage Doors From the initial visit to completion – no fuss – no problems – no mess – a great installation Brilliant transformation in a few hours to the overall look of the house. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED – look no further.”

    Koysor Miah, Burnley

    “Unbeatable price and a job well done! Took less than 40 mins and replaced one of the oldest Cardale spring systems! Was quoted £400+ to change the mechanism of my garage door from Google’s top 4 garage door repair services in Burnley. One company with 20+ years experience said I can’t change the mechanism at all and will need a brand new door costing up to £800! Alexandra Garage Doors with 35+ years experience said it CAN be replaced and saved me £100’s! Recommend him to anyone, lovely chap friendly and knows what he’s talking about!”

    Howard Knight

    “No complaints apart from no photos 🙂 didn’t meet John and didn’t need to. I asked him to look at the job, price the job, and then do the job. He did all of that and the job was spot on. Quality work. Thank you John.”

    Hazel Maxfield, Urmston

    “Recently had a problem with our remote controlled Henderson garage door which had ceased to work. I was given John Collier’s contact details and phoned him about the problem. John was extremely pleasant to deal with. He returned calls promptly and visited at the arranged time. On the day he came to complete the repair (which he squeezed in before his holiday), my mum had been taken poorly and John was very patient as he tried to wake my sleeping teenage son! All in all, I was extremely pleased with all aspects of the job. Thanks.”

    Alan Farr, Littleborough

    “From the very first meeting with the owner, I was convinced that this was the company with which I wished to do business. John showed me a comprehension album of doors, most of which were in situ. In a very relaxed but professional manner, he advised and guided me; all without any sense of manipulation or pressure. When the work was to be carried out, he arrived dead on time and on the day he promised. (Rare I think these days!) The company’s installation of the door was equal to my highest expectations. Alexandra Garage Doors; highly recommended!!”

I emailed John about the repair and he responded the same day and said he could fit us in the following day, which he did, He rang me prior to coming advising me of the estimated time of arrival and arrived bang on time. On arrival the job was slightly worse than anticipated due to lack of repair and poor use by ourselves.

He came on time, had both fixed quickly and stuck to his quote, even though I think one of them might have been a little more difficult than expected to fix due to its age. He didn’t try and talk me into replacing the garage doors. He didn’t leave any mess. I thought he was very good.”

We now have garage door envy around the village and we are very happy with the completed project. Happy to recommend John to others.”

    Phil, Lancashire

Thank you John!”

    Customer in Blackburn with Darwen

It was genuinely a pleasure to have somebody who knew exactly what he was doing, diagnosed the problem and had everything he needed to complete the job in one go – and being able to support a local business is a bonus.”

    “Fast and efficient service from John, the friendly and professional owner of the business. Sent an email query and received a call back very quickly and after a discussion about the potential options available you me, happily booked an appointment. John turned up on the agreed day and time (Not all contractors do!!) and after assessing the job, carried out a number of repairs efficiently and to a high standard. Delighted with the finished job and would highly recommend John for any repairs. I’m hoping that I won’t need to repair my garage doors for some time now but as and when they need replacing, John will be my first point of call!!”

    Barbara Parkinson, Bolton

    “John fitted our new garage door this morning, from the moment John visited the previous week to measure up and provide a quote I knew he was the right man for the job, he was friendly, professional and very knowledgeable, he turned up bang on time for both the quote and the work to be done, the work was carried out to the highest standard and everything was left clean and tidy, before leaving John asked me to test the door was working okay and gave me the reassurance that if needed I could ring him anytime if I had any problems. I would have no hesitation in recommending Alexandra Garage Doors for efficiency, punctuality and a very reasonable price which did not vary from the original quote. Thank you John.”

This in itself shows his attitude towards his work which is absolutely faultless. John’s personality shone through our various meetings and he is an all round great chap. No hesitation in recommending Alexandra Garage Doors.”

    Customer in Greater Manchester
