Anthracite grey matches the dark grey windows and doors fitted to many UK homes in recent years. It looks modern, hides dirt well and suits brick, render and cladding.

Questions from Peterlee customers

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.

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.

Which parts of Peterlee do you cover?

We cover Peterlee across postcode districts SR8, TS28, along with nearby Seaham, Hartlepool and Durham. Dates are agreed when you book.

Will Durham County 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 Durham County Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Peterlee we also cover Seaham (5 mi), Hartlepool (7 mi), Durham (10 mi) and Spennymoor (11 mi).
