Commercial sectional doors for workshops and units: what matters for Aldershot garages
Which operator suits a commercial door?
Shaft-mounted operators are common on commercial sectional doors because they handle heavier doors and higher use. Three-phase power is typical, though single-phase versions exist.
How is it different from a domestic door?
Commercial doors open more often and are often bigger, so they use springs rated for higher cycle counts, heavier hardware and operators built for frequent use. The safety requirements for powered doors at work also apply.
What can you choose for your Aldershot garage?
- Service planPlanned maintenance with records.
- High-cycle springsFor doors that open many times a day.
- Shaft operatorFor heavier doors and frequent use.
- Pass doorPedestrian door within the panels.
How much does a commercial sectional door cost in Aldershot?
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.
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 Aldershot?
Aldershot falls under the local district or borough council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering 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.
