Key questions about double sectional doors in Ferndown

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.

Will a standard operator lift it?

Domestic operators come in ratings for different door areas. Wide doors need an operator rated for the size and weight, and on very wide or heavy doors a more powerful unit or a different drive arrangement is specified.

Which options are available in Ferndown?

  • Matching side doorPedestrian door in the same finish.
  • Heavier operatorOperator rated for the door area and weight.
  • Window insertsRows of windows in one section for daylight.
  • Wicket doorIntegrated pedestrian door on selected ranges.

Do you need permission in Ferndown?

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.

Questions from Ferndown customers

Can you replace two single doors with one double sectional?

Only if the central pier can be removed safely. That needs structural assessment and often a new lintel, which is arranged separately before the door is ordered.

How much is a double sectional garage door?

A double insulated sectional door, supplied and fitted with an electric operator, is typically around £3,295–£4,995, depending on width, finish and glazing.

Do you cover Ferndown?

Yes. We cover Ferndown, including postcode districts BH22. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Will Dorset Council need to approve my new garage door?

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, ask Dorset Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Ferndown we also cover Bournemouth (6 mi), Christchurch (7 mi) and Poole (7 mi).
