Questions from Ferndown customers
What colour garage door adds most kerb appeal?
The one that matches your windows and front door. Anthracite grey and white are the most common choices.
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.
Do you cover Ferndown?
Yes. We cover Ferndown, including postcode districts BH22. 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 Ferndown?
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 Dorset Council.
