Double sectional garage doors – example of the door type

Choosing a double sectional door for a home in Taunton

One wide door or two single doors?

If your garage has a central pier, two single doors may still make sense. If the opening is clear from side to side, one wide sectional door gives the most usable width and a cleaner look. On some properties removing a central pier is possible, but that is structural work needing proper design, not a decision to make on the doorstep.

Does a wider door need different springs?

Yes. A double door is far heavier than a single, so it runs on a larger spring set, usually torsion springs on a longer shaft, and heavier-gauge tracks and cables. These are sized to the exact door weight by the manufacturer.

What will a double sectional door cost in Taunton?

Guide price: £3,295–£4,995 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.

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.

Do you need permission in Taunton?

If your property in Taunton is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Somerset 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.

Questions from Taunton customers

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.

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.

Which parts of Taunton do you cover?

We cover Taunton across postcode districts TA1, TA2, along with nearby Bridgwater. Dates are agreed when you book.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Taunton?

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, check with Somerset Council.

Yes. Close to Taunton we also cover Bridgwater (9 mi).
