Smooth, darker finishes show dust, fingerprints and small dents more readily than ribbed or textured panels. A satin or slightly textured flush finish is more forgiving.

Are flush doors more expensive?

Flush panels are often in the mid or premium tiers of a range, so expect them to cost a little more than an entry-level ribbed door.

Questions from Rochester customers

Will a black flush door get hot in the sun?

Dark colours absorb more heat. Manufacturers set limits on dark colours for some sizes and orientations; we check this for your door.

Can a flush door have windows?

Some ranges offer slim window strips or vision panels that suit a flush design.

Will Medway 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 Medway Council before ordering.
