What should Portsmouth homeowners know about insulated sectional doors?
Do insulated doors weigh more?
Yes. Foam-filled steel panels are heavier than single-skin doors, which is why every sectional door is balanced by springs sized to that door, either torsion springs on a shaft above the opening or tension springs along the tracks, depending on the range and size. They are set during fitting so the door feels light by hand and the motor is not straining.
Will an insulated door help an integral garage?
Where a garage shares walls with the house, a colder garage means colder shared walls and rooms above. An insulated door will not turn a garage into a habitable room, but it does take the edge off, especially paired with a draught-sealed door between the house and the garage.

Questions from Portsmouth customers
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.
Can an insulated door be fitted to an older garage?
Usually, yes. The opening needs to be sound and square enough to fix to, with enough headroom above the opening and room either side for the tracks. The survey checks all three.
Do you cover Portsmouth?
Yes. We cover Portsmouth, including postcode districts PO1, PO2, PO3, PO4, PO5, PO12. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Portsmouth?
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, check with Portsmouth City Council.
Do you also cover towns near Portsmouth?
Yes. Close to Portsmouth we also cover Gosport (2 mi), Fareham (5 mi), Havant (6 mi) and Waterlooville (6 mi).
