Reasonable price and good workmanship but a simple up-and-over garage door took 9 weeks to supply and fit. I wouldn't have minded because we all know there have been global supply problems as a result... See more

Customer service was A+

I broke my garage door in the open position Friday evening and called around a bunch of companies none of whom could help or come out. Sean was the only person who was kind enough to advise me over the phone on how to shut the garage door for security. We then booked an appointment and his team came over and fixed the issue. Excellent service and great value!

Excellent job!

Sean provided excellent advice to help us select the right door, and Lewis did a great job installing the door and adding bespoke cladding above the door. We are very pleased with the result; the new door is so much more practical than the old one and looks great! We would recommend the company.

Completely unprofessional and unfair.

I scheduled a routine service with Premier Garage Door Installations Ltd for my electric garage door, which was functioning well but needed maintenance. I was quoted £115 for a service that was supposed to take about an hour.

However, the technicians arrived at 8:30 PM on Thursday instead of the scheduled time on Friday, which was highly inconvenient. They spent only 15 minutes adding grease and checking bolts, far from the comprehensive service I was promised.

When I called to express my dissatisfaction, the representative, Sean, responded aggressively, using inappropriate language and making threats against me and my family. After I mentioned reporting his behavior to the police, I received a follow-up call offering to reduce the service fee to £90.

Based on this experience, I cannot recommend Premier Garage Door Installations Ltd for their lack of professionalism, poor service quality, and unacceptable customer care.

To any customers please read .
Hi Alex,

Thanks for the review. As you can see we have 100s of 10 out of 10 or 5 star reviews.
This is a massive lie though isn't it. So why don't we tell the truth. You have left us review on 3 diffeent platforms now which couldn't give us a proper chance to explain to our customers what actually happened. But thankfully you have left 1 on trustpilot which gives me the opportunity to explain properly. So thanks trustpilot for allowing us to explain in more than 100 words.
You rung me asking for a service. I told you a price. I said it can take up to a hour. You then said there isnt much wrong with the door but i would like someone to come and check it all over and make sure its working as it should.
You agreed the price. We booked it in for a Friday. My engineers on a Thursday wernt to far away from you. So they asked me can I go today instead of tomorrow. I told lewis to give you a call and see if your at home and if its OK with you.
We wouldn't just show up because it will be a wasted trip if no one was home. So now we have settled the fact you agreed the price and for them to come a day early we will move on to the next part.
The guys were there around 30mins. At the property which I could see from the van tracker. Another fact.
You then messaged me and said I'm not paying they were there 15mins. (exaggeration)
Bearing in mind we're based in St Albans and you are in Aldershot. So quite a distance.
You then offered us £50 which I said no to. The price was agreed if the guys were there 2 hours it would have been the same price. But again you already knew there wasn't to much wrong with the door you just wanted it checked. So we done our end of the bargin. Remeber you called us looking for help and advise I didn't look for you. So your paying for 2 engineers in a van time fuel and most importantly knowledge that you didn't have because you called us.

I'm not a rude person i simply treat people in the same respect im given. I jump through hoops for customers I will do everything in my power for a customer to be happy as I started the company and have put blood sweat and tears into it i don't stop working 7 days a week 365 hardly any days off to build a reputable professional company.

Now what I do have a problem with is customers like yourself that think it's acceptable to get some work done and then think there going to have 1 over on someone. I look at that as your stealing and anyone reading this would agree. You agreed everything then tried to change the goal posts after your door was serviced. Nice move.

Moving forward I already said you offered us £50 which I declined. You then continued to say I'm leaving you a bad review if you don't except 50 you were also rude to another member of staff Lynsey talking over her and saying im not paying and trying to blackmail us to take 50 or were getting a bad review.

So what we have all probably gavered from this is if I rolled over and let Alex here take advantage of us by getting some work done and then dictating the price this review wouldn't be here for you guys to read.

So anyone thinking of using Premier garage door installations in the future we are more than happy to go the extra mile and help out were we can and advise the best options for you. just please don't be like Alex here.

Many thanks
Sean Collins
P.s I hope you enjoyed 🙂

Thank you

Satisfactory repair to garage door.

Phoned Premier about a repair needed to my garage door. Phone answered quickly and visit arranged for later. Lewis (and assistant - sorry didnt get his name) arrived mid afternoon and did the job very efficiently and quickly. Would definitely recommend.

I had this company come out to repair my garage door, the team that was sent out were very polite and helpful and were able to carry out all the work previously discussed over the phone. Im very pleased and would recommend.

I am witness for my friend to the…

I am witness for my friend to the incident that took place on 21/03/24 and would have given minus 10 stars if I could. Be aware of this company's tatics, which are very questonable. The 2 men came to look at job and to give quote to replace mechanism. One of the men was not interested in supply & fit new mechanism for up and over door. He was only interested in replacing the whole door and mechanism. Neither of the 2 men e plained what they were doing, in fact the one of them set about by getting inside the garage and set about and cutting the cable for the mechanism. At no point did anyone explain why the cable needed to be cut and if we would be able to get into the garage (which was possible before the cables were cut), in fact I adked if the cables could be tightened which was swiftly rejected by one of the 2 from Premier Installation Group. After one of the 2 cut cables, the other one gleefully annonced, there you go, now you can't get inside at all, this is not what was expected, these 2 men made it worse as we coukd not open the door at all and then 2 of them said we are unable to get new mechanism since Brexit and the door definately has to be replaced with new door and mechanism. To make matters worse the 2 men gave my friend an invoice for £108 for call out charge, which was never mentioned or discussed by anyone at the time of the booking or by the 2 who turned up. This company is supposed to know what they are doing. I am so glad I was there to witness this awful incident. We called another company (recommended) who have replaced the cables that were cut by these 2 and It cost 13.35% of what this company wanted to charge to supply & fit new door with new mechanism. The specilist tradesman(who has been in business for 30 years plus) who supplied & fitted the parts, advised that all that needed doing was that the cables needed tightening and cables should not have been cut, as was done in this case by these 2. My advise if you deal with Premier Installation Group (this the same company as is on the invoice), make sure all charges are explained to you in advance in writing before anyone turns up to do the work and they explain what they will do at every stage of work and what the result will be before the workmen touch anything. Most likely as in this case your garage door may be fixable and you may not need new garage door. Don't trust Premier Installation Group. Using Brexit as an excuse for anything is very unprofessional and this is message to the Premier Installations Group, cables have been replaced and there is no need to replace the door and the mechanism, so can you explain why you and your workmen wanted replace the door and the mechanism when all that was needing doing was tightening the cables.

It's not often I reply to customers but this couldn't be so far from the truth. We charge a call out fee correct. We told you on the phone before leaving. We arrived to a garage that's about 30 years old that's completely knackered.
We could get parts which we said to you. But we said there's other bits broken and so on.
So you would be better with a new door with a 10year warranty.
So maybe there was a lack of communication between your husband and yourself who agreed the call out before attending. Because quite frankly we wouldn't bother attending if it wasn't.

But anyways if someone has bodged it back together for you to work for the next couple of weeks and scarpered with some money. I think you got a good deal. We as a reputable company wouldnt do things like that and if you think paying more for something is us trying our luck. You couldnt be more wrong. We just do things properly. When it breaks in the next week or so ( WHICH IT WILL) please don't contact us for a new door because our quotation is not valid.

It works both ways. We have 100s positive reviews loads of happy customers.

Excellent garage door installation service.

Excellent service in selecting the right design and specification for our replacement garage door. Installation was very professional and site tidied up afterwards. All work done on time and at the quoted price. Very pleased with the end result, Sean and the team were a pleasure to deal with.

Supply & Install Garage Door Opener

From the moment I first rang Premier, to the call-back I received almost instantly, Sean was extremely polite, knowledgeable and helpful.
After discussing my needs, he promised to get back to me, which he did the same afternoon. Seam was very easy to deal with and having accommodated us into his very busy schedule, the date and time was set.

On installation date, Sean was easy to get hold of and remained so polite throughout.

He came on time, as promised, with his two colleagues, Kyle & Lewis. They got on with the job; to install a new electric garage door opener unit - efficient, very quiet and took everything away with them.

All the guys were really friendly and when I asked them a few questions, Sean and Kyle were very knowledgeable about the product and what it could do.

I would thoroughly recommend Premier Garage Doors - and to top it off, they came from Hertfordshire to mine in Essex, without any fuss.
Their pricing was superb and so competitive too; and as they left, Sean reminded me of their customer service and guarantee.

They are friendly, professional, knowledgeable, courteous and superb on price and after sales care & service.

Highly recommended. Thanks Sean, Kyle and Lewis. Brilliant job.

Really impressed with service

Really impressed with service. Premium Garage doors squeezed me in to a busy day of theirs to help assess a broken garage door. They quoted for a new one then and there as it wasn't repairable and were quick and efficient with the installation.

Great work for a reasonable price

Dealing with Premier Garage Doors has been a pleasure from first to last. Their guys were invariably courteous, friendly and efficient and their installation of a new roller garage door was completed quickly and without drama. Great work for a reasonable price.

Electric garage door was being very temperamental - sometimes working without problems and then refusing to open or shut for days on end. Problem identified and motor replaced very quickly and efficiently.
