What should Gillingham homeowners know about cassette sectional doors?

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.

Options and upgrades for Gillingham homes

  • Cassette layoutGrid set by the manufacturer for the width.
  • Window cassettesGlazed inserts in the top row on some ranges.
  • Woodgrain textureAdds a painted-timber feel.
  • Heritage coloursMany RAL colours to order.

How much does a cassette sectional door cost in Gillingham?

Guide price: £2,195–£2,895 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.

The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.

Do you need permission in Gillingham?

If your property in Gillingham is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Medway Council is the authority to check with before ordering.

In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.
