Are there trade-offs?

What changes on a low headroom door?
The springs may be moved to the rear of the tracks or replaced with a different spring system, and the top section follows a tighter path. The door works the same way from outside and looks the same.

Questions from Scarborough customers
What if a low headroom door still will not fit?
A side sectional door that slides along the wall, or a compact roller door, are the usual alternatives.
Will a low headroom door look different?
From the outside it looks the same as any sectional door in the same finish.
Do you cover Scarborough?

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Scarborough?
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 North Yorkshire Council.
