What should Sale 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.

What will a commercial sectional door cost in Sale?
Guide price: from £3,500 + VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Sale?
The planning authority for Sale is Trafford Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
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.
If the garage already has a socket near the operator position, no electrical notification is needed. A brand-new circuit is notifiable under Part P in England.
At work, powered doors must also be maintained under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Questions from Sale 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.
Do you cover Sale?
Yes. We cover Sale, including postcode districts M21, M23, M32, M33, M41, WA15. 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 Sale?
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 Trafford Council.
