Commercial sectional doors for workshops and units – example of the door type

What should Purley homeowners know about commercial sectional doors?

What are the duties at work?

Powered doors in workplaces must be safe and maintained. In Great Britain that falls under workplace and work equipment law, and in Northern Ireland under its equivalent regulations. Regular servicing with records is the practical way to show the door is kept safe.

What size of premises do you cover?

This page covers workshops, small units, garages for vans and plant, and farm buildings. For large loading bays with dock levellers and shelters, a specialist industrial installer is the right route.

Guide price for a commercial sectional door in Purley

Guide price: from £3,500 + VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.

Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.

What rules apply in Purley?

If your property in Purley is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, the local London borough council is the authority to check with before ordering.

A new garage door in an existing opening is not normally development needing planning permission in England. The exceptions are listed buildings, conservation areas, Article 4 areas and estates where a planning condition restricts changes to the garage.

Operators normally run from a switched fused spur; adding one to an existing circuit is not notifiable in England, but a new circuit falls under Part P.

At work, powered doors must also be maintained under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Questions from Purley customers

Do you fit loading bay equipment?

No. We fit sectional doors to workshops and small units. Dock levellers, shelters and full loading bays need a specialist industrial door company.

Do commercial doors need servicing?

Yes. Powered doors at work should be maintained and checked regularly, with records kept.

We cover Purley across postcode districts CR0, CR2, CR5, CR8, CR9, SM6, along with nearby Croydon, Sutton and Mitcham. Dates are agreed when you book.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Purley?

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 London borough council.
