Choosing an insulated sectional door for a home in Putney
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Putney garage?
- Seals all roundBottom, side and head seals, plus gaskets between sections.
- Any finishRibbed, flush, cassette, woodgrain and coloured finishes are all available with insulated panels.
- Panel thicknessTypically 40 to 42 mm double-skin, or thicker thermally broken panels on premium ranges.
- Window insertsAdd glazed inserts for daylight; they slightly reduce thermal performance.

Questions from Putney customers
Can I add insulation to my existing up-and-over door?
Insulation kits exist for up-and-over doors, but they add weight that the springs were not designed for and seldom seal well. Replacing with an insulated sectional door is the reliable route.
What U-value will I get?
Manufacturers publish U-values for each range and size. As an example, one leading range quotes about 1.4 W/m²K for a fitted 42 mm door and about 1.0 W/m²K for its 67 mm thermally broken version, against roughly 6.5 W/m²K for a single-skin steel door of the same size. Window inserts reduce performance slightly. We give you the published figure for the exact door on your quote.

Will the local London borough 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 the local London borough council before ordering.
