Anthracite and RAL coloured sectional garage doors in Merseyside
Looking for a coloured sectional door in Merseyside? We cover Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens and Southport and the rest of the area, measuring, supplying and fitting each door.
Coloured sectional garage doors are sectional doors finished in a colour other than the standard white, from the popular anthracite grey (RAL 7016) to black, greens, blues and creams, so the door can match windows, front doors and cladding. Most ranges offer a short list of preferred colours and a wide RAL palette to order.

What should you know about coloured sectional doors in Merseyside?
Can the inside be a different colour?
The inside of most doors is a standard white or light grey finish. Some ranges offer the outside colour on both faces at extra cost.
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.
How do I match my windows?
Ask your window installer for the RAL or foil reference, or bring a sample to the survey. Colour on screen is never a safe guide.

What rules apply in Merseyside?
In England, swapping a garage door for a new one, including an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission. Permission or consent can be needed if the house is listed, if it sits in a conservation area or is covered by an Article 4 direction, or if the new door would noticeably change how the house looks from the street. On many newer estates a planning condition removes permitted development rights or requires the garage to be kept for parking, so check your planning history before changing the door or the use of the garage.
Planning authorities in Merseyside include Knowsley Council, Liverpool City Council, Sefton Council, St Helens Council and Wirral Council.

Questions about anthracite and RAL coloured sectional garage doors in Merseyside
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.
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 towns in Merseyside do you cover?
We cover Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens, Southport, Wallasey, Bootle, Bebington and Huyton and other towns across Merseyside.
Do I need planning permission in Merseyside?
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. Check with your local planning authority if in doubt.
