George and Kathleen Nisbet started the business in 1993. George was from a farming family and then went on to serve his time as a car mechanic. Eventually this was to be useful in the fitting and repairing of garage doors. Kathleen was a primary school teacher and kept the accounts and the paperwork in check for George. His son, Michael, had come out of the army just as we were getting busier. Michael's time as an Armourer also helped him apply himself in the Garage Door trade. From time to time we employed young apprentices from Henry Boot and were very successful in the recruitment of Gavin our longest serving employee.

Winter is always fast approaching, it seems we're all starting to notice the temperature dropping, so it's time to batten down the hatches and seal up any draughty areas of your home. Garages are a great place to start, because you could make a major difference with just one single change. Insulated Sectional Doors are particularly great for windy areas because they are sealed all around! Banish the draughts with our secure draught-proof seal. So if that bedroom above your garage is feeling the chill, then why not visit our Showroom and see the thickness for yourself.

Tayside Garage Doors specialise in the supply and fitting of high-quality garage doors and outside doors such as front doors, garage side doors, and back doors. Working only with a range of trusted brands, we work hard to ensure you're getting the right door for your needs, and in a wide range of colours and finishes. Sectional doors are space-saving allowing you to park right in front of the door. These can also be fitted to any opening shape because they are fitted behind. Automatic sectional doors are great for security as they are sealed at the top and sides.

We use 3 manufacturers for these doors, Hormann, Garador and Cardale, giving you plenty of choice. Canopy doors are the traditional garage doors that allow extra drive-through width, not achieved with the retractable door. This is because the lifting mechanism is contained above the door. The maximum size limit is 8ft x 7ft. Canopy doors are available in an electric garage door design, but require a "bow arm" which can make the door a little jumpy and reduce drive through height. If an electric up and over door is required, we recommend the retractable design.

Security shutters can be ideal if you want peace of mind when you leave your home for a longer period of time, or even if you just want to protect your furnishings from the sun! Security shutters can help deter vandalism of your property, whether it's commercial or domestic. SWS (Securoshield) is our main supplier for these products. These shutters can go on windows externally and for doors internal and external. We have one in our unit for reference. These are made to measure and manufactured in the UK with CE mark.

Sectional doors are space-saving allowing you to park right in front of the door. These can also be fitted to any opening shape because they are fitted behind. Automatic sectional doors are great for security as they are sealed at the top and sides. Sectional doors need little maintenance, just a service once a year before the bad weather comes. To find out more about how a sectional garage door works and to look at the safety and security features check out the video. It shows Hrmann's automatic, insulated sectional garage door in the Large Ribbed Silkgrain design.

If you have no other way in or out of your garage other than your garage door then we recommend you fit an external release if your door is electrically operated. This allows you to release your garage door from the operator should you lose/damage your remote handset. This means that you can still work the door manually until we can come and tune in a new handset to your operator. Your handset is uniquely matched to your operator so no other handset will work other than your own. This means that we cannot simply quickly order a standard replacement handset, as it won't automatically operate your door.
