Double sectional garage doors in West Glamorgan
We supply and fit double sectional doors across West Glamorgan, including Swansea, Neath, Gorseinon and Ystalyfera, with a free survey and a fixed written price for every door.
A double sectional garage door is a single wide sectional door that spans a two-car opening, typically around 4.3 to 4.9 metres wide, in place of two separate doors. Because it lifts vertically and parks under the ceiling, a double sectional keeps the whole drive clear and lets two cars use the full width of the opening.

What should you know about double sectional doors in West Glamorgan?
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.
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.
Which options can you choose?
- Matching side doorPedestrian door in the same finish.
- Window insertsRows of windows in one section for daylight.
- Heavier operatorOperator rated for the door area and weight.
- Wicket doorIntegrated pedestrian door on selected ranges.
- Any designRibbed, large rib, flush, cassette, woodgrain and glazed options.

Listed buildings, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and any planning conditions on your property can change that, so check with your local planning authority first if any of these apply.
Planning authorities in West Glamorgan include Neath Port Talbot Council and Swansea Council.
