Key questions about coloured sectional doors in Lewes
Why is anthracite grey so popular?
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.
Will a dark colour fade or move?
All exterior coatings weather. Dark colours absorb more heat, and some manufacturers limit dark colours on certain sizes or recommend specific panel types for sunny elevations. We check the rules for your door.
Which options are available in Lewes?
- Anthracite RAL 7016The classic dark grey.
- Heritage coloursGreens, blues and creams.
- Black and dark greysRAL 9005 and similar.
- Two-sided colourOutside colour on both faces on some ranges.

Questions from Lewes 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.

Yes. We cover Lewes, including postcode districts BN7. 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 Lewes?
Usually not.

If in doubt, check with the local district or borough council.
