What should Trowbridge 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.
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.
Which options are available in Trowbridge?
- Electric or manualMost insulated doors are motorised; manual operation is possible on lighter doors.
- Window insertsAdd glazed inserts for daylight; they slightly reduce thermal performance.
- Seals all roundBottom, side and head seals, plus gaskets between sections.
- Panel thicknessTypically 40 to 42 mm double-skin, or thicker thermally broken panels on premium ranges.

Questions from Trowbridge 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.
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.
Which parts of Trowbridge do you cover?
We cover Trowbridge across postcode districts BA14, along with nearby Melksham, Warminster and Chippenham. Dates are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Trowbridge?
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 Wiltshire Council.
