Orihuela
For a garage door, Orihuela is really three different landscapes. The city, at the foot of the sierra and split in two by the river Segura, combines the narrow streets of the old quarter with neighbourhoods such as El Rabaloche and Capuchinos, full of single-storey houses with a garage and apartment blocks with a community garage and a tight ramp. Around it stretches the huerta, the irrigated farmland of the Vega Baja, with villages such as La Aparecida, Desamparados, Hurchillo and Torremendo, and with country houses, storehouses and farm buildings. And by the sea, far from the city centre, lies Orihuela Costa.
In the city and the huerta, the enemy is water. The DANA of September 2019 filled ground-floor garages and basements across much of the Vega Baja with mud, and every gota fría episode puts motors, electrical panels and tracks to the test again. We also see plenty of community up-and-over doors with decades of use behind them, garages in the old town with wooden doors that no longer close and farm warehouses in the huerta with large doors that have to let through tractors, vans and fruit and vegetable lorries.
Orihuela Costa is another world: urbanisations such as Playa Flamenca, La Zenia, Cabo Roig, Los Dolses and Villamartín, with bungalows, gated residential complexes with a pool and an underground garage, and villas on large plots in Dehesa de Campoamor. Here salt rules, corroding springs, cables and fixings, and many owners spend long periods away and need the door to work on the day they return. On residential complexes, we usually deal directly with the property manager.
From our base at Las Atalayas in Elche, we cover both parts of the municipality with the same team. We visit the site, take measurements, give you a quote and make every door to measure, at factory-direct prices. We have installed over 1,200 doors working this way.
What we are asked for most in Orihuela
Community and car park doors
The residential complexes of La Zenia, Playa Flamenca and Villamartín have basement garages that never stop in summer. We install heavy-duty, vandal-resistant doors with photocells, safety edges and manual release in line with UNE-EN 13241-1, and prepare the proposal for the property manager to take to the owners' meeting. In the city, we bring older community garages up to standard.

On the Puente Alto industrial estate and in the warehouses of the outlying villages, farming businesses and fruit and vegetable packers are hard at work. We fit industrial sectional doors, roller doors and sliding warehouse doors as wide as lorries and forklifts need, high-speed doors for cold stores and loading bays, and pedestrian doors for staff.
See the serviceSliding gates and doors
The villas of Dehesa de Campoamor and Cabo Roig and the farmhouses with land in the huerta usually close with a sliding gate. We make them with bars, solid sheet or slats, on a track or cantilevered, with finishes that withstand salt on the coast and the damp from the river in the Vega Baja.
See the serviceEmergency repair
When water gets into a garage in the Vega Baja, the motor and control board are usually the first to fail, followed by tracks and bearings clogged with mud. We also repair broken springs and cables, dented panels and doors that have come off their tracks, with 24-hour emergency call-outs in the city, the villages and on the coast.
See the serviceMaintenance contracts
For coastal communities with many absent owners and for farm warehouses that can't stop in the middle of the harvest season, an annual maintenance contract avoids surprises: we inspect, grease, adjust springs and limit switches, check the safety devices and record everything in the maintenance log.
See the serviceReplacing old doors
The apartment blocks and garages of the city centre still have many old up-and-over doors and wooden doors swollen by damp. We take them down, haul away the old door, adapt the opening and fit an insulated-panel sectional door or a new up-and-over door that fits the same opening.
See the serviceMotors and automation
Many houses in the outlying villages still have swing or sliding gates that are opened by hand. We automate them with a motor kit suited to each gate, photocells, a flashing lamp and a backup battery for power cuts, which is well worth having in the huerta when a storm knocks out the electricity.

Garage doors in Orihuela: your questions
Do you work in both Orihuela city and Orihuela Costa?
Yes, throughout the municipality: the city centre and neighbourhoods such as El Rabaloche and Capuchinos, the farming villages from La Aparecida to Torremendo, the Puente Alto industrial estate and the coastal urbanisations, from Playa Flamenca to Dehesa de Campoamor. You can call us on 865 443 261 Monday to Friday 8:00–19:00 and Saturday 9:00–14:00.
My garage has flooded in the gota fría. What should I do with the door?
Switch off the power to the motor and don't try to open the door with the remote while there is water or mud. If you need to get the car out, use the manual release. Afterwards we check the control board, motor, photocells, tracks and bearings, replace whatever has been damaged and leave the door clean, greased and tested before you go back to using it normally.
Which door suits a farm warehouse where lorries drive in?
The usual choice is an industrial sectional door or a steel-slat roller door, with the width and height needed by the largest vehicle that will enter. If staff go in and out often, we add a pedestrian door in the door leaf itself or alongside it. For cold stores and loading bays, a high-speed door reduces cold losses.
Our residential complex on the coast wants to replace its basement garage door. How do you go about it?
We visit the garage with the president or the property manager, take measurements and prepare a clear proposal for the owners' meeting, with the safety features a community door requires. Once it is approved, we make the door and it is installed in one day, so residents are barely left without access to the garage.
