We have one goal...

to give you peace of mind, with the right product for you. Professionally installed with friendly, efficient customer service. From a team that care about you and your home improvement project.

The business was set up by Geoff Edmonds in 2007 as a part time project.  He had spent a 45 year career working in the Garage Door and construction Materials Sector. He was working in development for a garage door manufacturer 4 days a week and so used his 5th day to privately install garage doors. His son James joined the business in 2012 with an aim to grow it into a commercial venture providing for James and for Geoff in his retirement. The company was incorporated as UK Garage Doors Ltd in 2012 trading as the Garage Door Company Grantham.

James has grown the company year on year. Starting from a home office in Hougham the company moved into its first commercial premises in 2014 in Grantham which it then outgrew in 2018. The company is now settled in its new offices and showroom in Priest Court, Grantham. We now employ 11 members of staff, supply regional and national builders, and are the authorised installers for the leading brands in Garage Doors, Entrance Doors & Awnings. Despite the rapid growth, the company maintains clear family business values and continues to operate to commercial and ethical standards that are usually found in larger more advanced businesses.

The company has come a long way since 2007 and is now the regions stalwart garage door and awnings supplier.

James

Managing Director

I was born into a family of garage door enthusiasts and have been working in the industry for over 15 years. I’ve always had a thirst to understand why things work, so going into an industry like this where mechanical innovation is happening every day is an ideal job. Outside of work, if there is such a thing, I like to walk our company dog Huxley, take on endurance running challengs and enjoy a few pints in the local. My favourite product is 100% the Somfy connectivity kit tying in our awnings & garage doors to my smart home. I love a gizmo!

Director

I'm now happily retired so I work in an advisory capacity to the team. Having spent my life working in the garage door and construction materials industry it was only right that James and I set up GDCG to do it our way. As a family business we pride ourselves on our customer service and providing that personal touch. As you'll see from our hundreds of reviews, our customers love that about us. My favourite product is Markilux MX3 Awning. It has a top quality finish, is long lasting and super reliable.

Head Surveyor

I’ve been working with GDCG from the start, I was its first full time non subcontracted employee many moons ago. Learning all the product information from ‘Master Geoff’, I’ve a keen eye for detail and I am fastidious in my work, which means this job suits me down to the ground. Outside of work you can normally find me working in the garden or powering up the grill on a summer evening. My favourite product is the insulated side hinged garage door. With fewer customers using garages for cars now, this product type is class and functionality rolled into one.

Logisitics Manager

I've been working with GDCG for 10 years & love it. Having worked in Surveying and Installations I've developed a great understanding of all areas of the business which helped me move into my current role as Logistics Manager. I work closely with our suppliers across all product lines. I'm proud to help deliver on our core values of honesty & reliability with our close-knit GDCG Team, whilst working hard at delivering a high-end service & product for our customers. When not at work I am a keen festival goer, love my snooker and also very partial to a Pub Quiz. My favourite product is the Garador Insulated Sectional Door and Garamatic Motor. It's stylish, fun and reliable.

Mark

Mark

Installation Manager

I spent much of my career in the forces, before moving into Formula 1 for a few seasons. I’m a stickler for the detail and getting things done right. I work to create a positive, motivational atmosphere within our engineers' teams and love the excitement of watching a really big jobs come together. I love getting out and getting my hands on the tools so am always keen to be extra hands to our engineers where needed. In my spare time I’m a keen DIY’er and enjoy taking the dogs out for their long walks. My favourite product is hands down our side sliding sectional, they are a complicated fit but look really special in action.
