Mark Arridge - Managing Director, founder, sales person, technical expert and all round bottle washer. Taught design and technology prior to starting the business. Fitted garage doors himself for many years before the company became web-based. Interested in Rugby Union, but would not consider playing it these days, due to his gammy shoulder and dodgy hip. Likes cycling, saunas, curry, stand-up comedy and the odd pint. Mark is a stickler for giving the customer maximum technical help and advice. “The door has got to be right” is his mantra.

Established in 1989 as a local supply and fit company, we were one of the very first suppliers of garage doors on the internet from 1999. We pride ourselves in accurate, unbiased and clear technical help before, during and after purchase.

	Sheila Kitchin - Sheila is a true multi-tasker. Accounts manager, website updater, receptionist, customer service and general all rounder. Joined the company in 2005 when her daughters were coming to the end of school education. Sheila is great at resolving customer queries with our suppliers and manufacturers. They have learnt not to fob her off. She is our silent Rotweiller.
	Geoff Wilson - The old codger of the team, but the wisest….or so he keeps saying. Geoff was a Senior Commercial Manager for a blue chip radar manufacturer before he took early retirement. He joined the firm in 2004 and got us organised. Loves football, especially one of the big Merseyside teams who play in red. Geoff is Office Manager, responsible for e-mail quotations and tele-sales.
	Irina Arridge - Company Director and Mark’s wife. Known, however, amongst the team as “Head of Global”. Russian-born, with a degree in Economics and a second degree in Law, Irina looks after all legal aspects within the business, IT, covering during staff holidays and tasting red wine.

One thing our customers can be sure of is that each team member has the same aim: "to give first class service to and ensure complete satisfaction for all our valuable customers".
