Double sectional garage doors in West Yorkshire
Looking for a double sectional door in West Yorkshire? We cover Leeds, Bradford, Huddersfield and Wakefield and the rest of the area, measuring, supplying and fitting each 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 Yorkshire?
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?
- Wicket doorIntegrated pedestrian door on selected ranges.
- Heavier operatorOperator rated for the door area and weight.
- Matching side doorPedestrian door in the same finish.
- Any designRibbed, large rib, flush, cassette, woodgrain and glazed options.
- Window insertsRows of windows in one section for daylight.

What rules apply in West Yorkshire?
In England, swapping a garage door for a new one, including an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission. Permission or consent can be needed if the house is listed, if it sits in a conservation area or is covered by an Article 4 direction, or if the new door would noticeably change how the house looks from the street. On many newer estates a planning condition removes permitted development rights or requires the garage to be kept for parking, so check your planning history before changing the door or the use of the garage.
Planning authorities in West Yorkshire include Bradford Council, Calderdale Council, Kirklees Council, Leeds City Council and Wakefield Council.
