Petrer
Petrer and Elda share a valley and meet at La Frontera, but for a garage door they are very different places. Petrer has kept its old town at the foot of the castle, with narrow streets, steep slopes and traditional village houses with the garage on the ground floor, where an up-and-over door that juts out into the street simply doesn't fit. Around it grew the newer part of town and La Frontera, with apartment blocks and community garages, a neighbourhood in the middle of a wave of building refurbishment.
What sets Petrer apart most is its hilly countryside. In rural areas such as Caprala, El Rebentó, the Rambla de Puça and L'Almadrava there are villas and country houses on large plots, with dirt tracks, sloping entrances and gates that have been opened by hand for years. In Loma Badá, an urbanisation of villas with controlled access, the plots are spread across the hillside. The problems there are different: soil and stones getting into the tracks, gate leaves scraping the ground because of the slope, gates pulled out of line by the wind and motors that suffer in the winter frosts and the strong summer sun.
Industry is concentrated on the Salinetas and Les Pedreres industrial estates and in the Guirney area, with units and warehouses for footwear and other sectors that need industrial sectional doors, roller doors and sliding warehouse doors able to open many times a day without giving trouble.
We work in Petrer from our base at Las Atalayas in Elche, with our own team and no subcontractors. Before suggesting anything, we measure the opening and the slope of the entrance, because on a steep street or a dirt track the right door isn't the same as in a flat garage. We have been manufacturing since 2009 and every door is made to fit your entrance.
What we are asked for most in Petrer
Sliding gates and doors
On the plots of Caprala and the Rambla de Puça, with a dirt track up to the gate, we install cantilever sliding gates that hang free and need no track on the ground, so soil and stones can't jam them. We also make sliding gates that run on a track, with bars, solid sheet or slats, when the entrance is flat and concreted.

Country houses in L'Almadrava and El Rebentó usually close with double swing gates. If the drive slopes up towards the house, we adjust the swing so the leaves don't scrape the ground and choose between arm motors mounted on the pillar or underground motors, which leave the entrance clear.

In the old town, with its narrow, steep streets, and on the villas of Loma Badá, a sectional door is the most convenient solution: it rises vertically and tucks under the ceiling, without taking up the street or the entrance. We fit low-headroom tracks in village-house garages and insulated sandwich panels against the cold and the heat.
See the serviceMotors and automation
Many gates in Petrer's rural areas are still opened by hand. We automate them with a kit designed for each type of gate, photocells, a flashing lamp and a backup battery so the gate works even when the power goes off, something you'll appreciate in the houses furthest from the town centre.

Many blocks in La Frontera are being refurbished, and it's a good time to replace the community garage door as well. We install heavy-duty doors with photocells, safety edges, anti-drop devices and manual release, and prepare the proposal so the property manager can present it at the owners' meeting alongside the rest of the work.

In Salinetas, Les Pedreres and the Guirney we install industrial sectional doors, roller doors and sliding warehouse doors, high-speed doors and pedestrian doors. We plan the fitting so the unit can keep loading and unloading, and leave the door ready with the controls and safety devices that an area with forklift traffic requires.
See the serviceEmergency repair
We repair gates that have dropped or scrape the ground because of the slope, wheels and tracks worn by soil, broken springs and cables in old-town garages and motors that stop responding after a storm. For anything that can't wait, we have 24-hour emergency call-outs throughout Petrer.

Garage doors in Petrer: your questions
My villa is in the countryside with a dirt track. Sliding or swing gate?
If the track is dirt or fills with stones when it rains, a cantilever sliding gate is the most reliable, because it doesn't rest on a track. A swing gate works well when there is room for the leaves to open and the entrance doesn't slope up too steeply. Before deciding, we measure the slope and the free space on each side of the entrance.
I live in Petrer's old town on a narrow, steep street. What door will fit?
Usually a sectional door, which rises vertically without encroaching on the street, or a roller door if the garage ceiling is very low. A canopy up-and-over door juts out when it opens, and on those streets it gets in the way or simply doesn't fit. We measure the opening and the slope to adjust the tracks, bottom seals and limit switches.
What happens if the power goes off and my gate is motorised?
Every automation system we fit has a manual release, so you can always open the gate by hand. If you want to keep opening it with the remote, we add a backup battery that keeps the motor running during the power cut. The installation comes with a 3-year written warranty, and the motor with a 5-year one.
