What should Sandhurst homeowners know about insulated sectional doors?
What thickness should you pick?
Most domestic sectional doors use panels of about 40 to 42 mm. Doors sold as thermally broken use thicker panels, often around 67 mm, with a break between the inner and outer skins so cold is not conducted straight through. The thicker option costs more and needs a little more headroom, so it makes most sense on integral or heated garages.
Is it worth it on a detached garage?
On a detached garage used only for a car, a standard double-skin door is usually enough. If you keep tools, bikes, a freezer or stock in there, or you use it as a workspace, the warmer, drier conditions are worth the extra cost.

Questions from Sandhurst customers
Is an insulated garage door worth it?
If the garage is integral, heated, used as a workspace or stores anything sensitive to cold and damp, yes. For a detached garage used only for parking, a standard double-skin door is often enough.
How much does an insulated sectional garage door cost?
Guide prices for a single insulated sectional door supplied and fitted with an electric operator run £2,095–£3,495, from a standard door up to thermally broken panels. Size, finish, glazing and the state of the opening all move the figure, so we confirm a fixed price after a free survey.

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