What should Wick homeowners know about double sectional doors?
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.
How long does fitting take?
A double sectional door is still usually a one-day job for a two-person team, including removal of the old door, unless the opening needs building work first.

Planning and regulations for Wick homes
If your property in Wick is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Highland Council is the authority to check with before ordering.
Scottish rules normally allow a like-for-like garage door without permission. Conservation areas are stricter because the householder permitted development class for external alterations does not apply there.

Questions from Wick customers
Is a double sectional door heavy to open by hand?
When it is correctly balanced, the springs carry most of the weight. Even so, most people choose electric operation on a double.
Do I need more headroom for a double door?
Headroom depends more on the track and spring system than the width. Where headroom is tight, a low-headroom version is available.
Do you cover Wick?
We cover Wick by arrangement. Because of the distance, we confirm availability and any travel cost before you book, and the cost is shown separately on your quote.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Wick?
Usually not for a like-for-like door. In Scotland a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent. If in doubt, check with Highland Council.
Which other places do you cover by arrangement?
In the Highlands and Islands we also cover Thurso and Kirkwall by arrangement, with any travel cost shown on the quote.
