Choosing a commercial sectional door for a home in Strood

How much does a commercial sectional door cost in Strood?
Guide price: from £3,500 + VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
What rules apply in Strood?
If your property in Strood is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Medway 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 Strood 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 you cover Strood?

Will Medway Council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not.

If in doubt, ask Medway Council before ordering.
