Key questions about commercial sectional doors in Cardiff
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.

Do you need permission in Cardiff?

A replacement garage door in Wales rarely needs planning permission. Check with the planning authority if your home is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with conditions.
In Wales a new circuit, or a new supply to a detached garage, is notifiable electrical work and is done by a registered electrician.
At work, powered doors must also be maintained under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.
