Double sectional garage doors in Yarm

Double sectional garage doors: what matters for Yarm garages

Can a double door have a pedestrian door in it?

Some ranges offer an integrated wicket door within a sectional door. It is useful on wide doors where there is no separate side door, though it adds cost and has threshold and width limits.

What sizes are common in the UK?

Many older double garages have openings of about 14 feet by 7 feet (roughly 4267 by 2134 mm) or 16 feet by 7 feet (about 4877 by 2134 mm). New builds vary, which is why every door is made to the measured opening rather than to a stock size.

Planning and regulations for Yarm homes

Yarm falls under Stockton-on-Tees 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.
