Garage doors in Sant Joan d'Alacant

Sant Joan d'Alacant
Sant Joan d'Alacant is a municipality that is small in area and very densely built, squeezed in between Alicante, Mutxamel and El Campello. The old town centre keeps its narrow streets of two-storey houses where the garage opens straight onto the pavement, sometimes with a traditional wooden door or a sheet-steel up-and-over door that has given all it had. Not just any door will do in openings like these: the lintel, the clear width and the car's turning space all have to be measured carefully, because the street leaves no room to manoeuvre.
Around the centre, residential complexes of townhouses have sprung up with a community garage, a pool and a shared ramp, along with apartment blocks with a basement garage for residents. Benimagrell, on the other side of the N-332, and Comtat de Fabraquer follow the same pattern, with many recent blocks and communities that need heavy-duty doors, well-managed remotes and up-to-date safety devices.
The other side of Sant Joan is the huerta, its old farmland. In La Font, Las Mezquitas, Lloixa or Salafranca there are still old country estates, villas on their own plots and renovated houses among stone walls and narrow lanes, where a swing or sliding gate and a separate garage are the norm. Here the nearby Muchavista beach makes itself felt: the breeze carries salt that rusts hardware, bolts and steel tracks unless they are properly treated, and the humidity of summer nights ends up affecting the motors' control boards.
We cover Sant Joan from our base at Pol. Ind. Las Atalayas in Elche. We come to measure, recommend finishes that stand up to the sea air and give you a free quote within 24 hours, with interest-free finance if you would rather spread the cost.
What we are asked for most in Sant Joan d'Alacant
Community and car park doors
Townhouse complexes with a shared garage and the blocks of Benimagrell and Comtat de Fabraquer have doors that open dozens of times a day. We install heavy-duty, vandal-resistant community doors with photocells, safety edges and an anti-fall system, and prepare everything the property manager needs to take to the owners' meeting.
See the serviceReplacing old doors
The old town centre still has wooden doors and sheet-steel up-and-over doors on garages that open onto the pavement. We take down the old door, clear away what is left, adapt the opening if the lintel or jambs are out of square and leave a new door that opens without encroaching on a street where every inch counts.
See the serviceSwing gates and doors
On the estates and villas of La Font, Lloixa or Salafranca, the entrance is usually a double swing gate between walls. We make swing gates to measure for garages and plots and automate them with arm or underground motors, whichever suits each pillar best, so you can drive in from the car on lanes where stopping is not a good idea.
See the serviceFinishes
Near Muchavista the sea breeze is hard on bare steel. We suggest aluminium, PVC or well-treated steel finishes, in colours and wood effects that match the whitewashed façades and the joinery of the old farmhouses, plus glazing so that a garage converted into a living space gets natural light.
See the serviceRemotes and app control
In residential complexes with a pool and a shared garage, relatives and seasonal tenants arrive every summer. We copy and programme remotes, cancel lost ones, fit code keypads on the pedestrian door and set up app opening, so the community can manage access without handing out remotes that never come back.
See the serviceMotors and automation
Many garages in the old centre are still opened by hand, with the car waiting on a single-lane street. We automate up-and-over, sectional and swing doors with the right kit for each one, add photocells and a backup battery for power cuts, and give you a written 5-year warranty on the motor.

Garage doors in Sant Joan d'Alacant: your questions
Can you fit a new door on a garage in the old centre when the street is so narrow?
Yes. In the centre of Sant Joan we measure the opening, the lintel and the space inside before proposing anything. If there is no room for a door to swing outwards, the usual answer is a sectional door with low-headroom tracks or a roller door, both of which rise vertically and do not encroach on the pavement. Installation is done in one day, so the street is not taken up for longer than necessary.
What care does a garage door need near Muchavista beach?
The salt carried on the breeze speeds up rust on springs, bolts, tracks and pulleys. It is worth rinsing the hardware with fresh water from time to time, greasing the moving parts and having an annual service that adjusts the springs and checks the safety devices. For communities and homeowners we offer a maintenance contract with a report and a service logbook.
Our townhouse community wants to replace the shared garage door: how do you go about it?
We visit the garage with the president or the property manager, look at the opening, the ramp and daily use, and submit a proposal with a heavy-duty door, photocells, safety edges and manual release in line with UNE-EN 13241-1. Once the owners' meeting gives its approval, we make the door and set the installation date, letting residents know in advance so they can move their cars out if needed.
Do you also work in Benimagrell and the rural districts of the huerta?
Yes, we cover the whole municipality: the centre, Benimagrell, Comtat de Fabraquer and the rural districts of La Font, Las Mezquitas, Lloixa and Salafranca. On the huerta estates we often find old gates on stone walls and, before motorising them, we check that the pillars and hinges can take the weight and thrust of each leaf.
