Can the inside be a different colour?

Questions from Folkestone 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.
Do you cover Folkestone?
Yes. We cover Folkestone, including postcode districts CT18, CT19, CT20. 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 Folkestone?
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 the local district or borough council.
