Cassette and Georgian sectional garage doors: what matters for Islington garages
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Islington garage?
- Woodgrain textureAdds a painted-timber feel.
- Heritage coloursMany RAL colours to order.
- Window cassettesGlazed inserts in the top row on some ranges.
- Cassette layoutGrid set by the manufacturer for the width.
Guide price for a cassette sectional door in Islington

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 Islington?
Islington falls under the local London borough council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.

Questions from Islington customers
Is a cassette door suitable for a listed building or conservation area?
It can be a sympathetic choice, but consent may still be needed. Check with the local planning authority before ordering.
Can the top row be glazed?
Some ranges offer glazed cassettes in the top row for daylight.

Yes. We cover Islington, including postcode districts EC1A, EC1M, EC1R, EC1V, EC1Y, EC2A, EC3P, N1. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Islington?
Usually not. Replacing a garage door, including with an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission in England unless the house is listed, in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or has planning conditions affecting the garage. If in doubt, check with the local London borough council.
