Our cassette sectional door service covers Cheshire: Warrington, Chester, Crewe and Ellesmere Port, plus the surrounding area, with each door made to measure after a free survey.
A cassette sectional garage door has rows of raised or recessed rectangular panels pressed into each section, giving the traditional Georgian look of a panelled door with the convenience of a modern sectional. It suits period houses, traditional brick homes and estates built in a classic style.

What should you know about cassette sectional doors in Cheshire?
How many cassettes will I get?
The number of cassettes per row depends on the door width and the range. The manufacturer sets the layout so cassettes stay well proportioned.
Can a cassette door be insulated and electric?
Yes. Cassette panels are usually double-skin and insulated, and the door can be motorised like any other sectional door.
Why pick a cassette design?
Cassettes break the door into a grid, which echoes panelled front doors and sash windows. On a traditional house, a cassette door looks at home in a way a plain ribbed door sometimes does not.
Which options can you choose?
- Heritage coloursMany RAL colours to order.
- Cassette layoutGrid set by the manufacturer for the width.
- Woodgrain textureAdds a painted-timber feel.
- Window cassettesGlazed inserts in the top row on some ranges.
How much does a cassette sectional door cost in Cheshire?
Guide price: £2,195–£2,895 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Cheshire?
In England, swapping a garage door for a new one, including an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission. Permission or consent can be needed if the house is listed, if it sits in a conservation area or is covered by an Article 4 direction, or if the new door would noticeably change how the house looks from the street. On many newer estates a planning condition removes permitted development rights or requires the garage to be kept for parking, so check your planning history before changing the door or the use of the garage.
Planning authorities in Cheshire include Cheshire East Council, Cheshire West and Chester Council, Halton Council and Warrington Council.
