Why is anthracite grey so popular?

Questions from Runcorn customers
Can I paint my sectional door later?
Repainting a factory-finished door can affect the warranty and is rarely as durable. It is better to order the colour you want.
How much extra is a coloured garage door?
Preferred colours such as anthracite grey often cost little or nothing extra; RAL colours to order usually add to the price. A coloured single door is typically around £2,095–£2,995 supplied and fitted.
Which parts of Runcorn do you cover?
We cover Runcorn across postcode districts WA7, WA8, along with nearby Widnes, Warrington and Ellesmere Port. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will Halton Council need to approve my new garage door?
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, ask Halton Council before ordering.
