I would like to have a quote on a double garage door supplied and fitted and fully automated.

I must be able to fit two cars side by side specifically two double cab bakkies. I would need the entire frame work constructed from scratch for the garage door to fit onto as there is none at the moment except the carport. The professional will need to advise.
