Choosing a low headroom sectional door for a home in Bognor Regis
How much headroom does a standard door need?
Published figures for standard tracks run from about 100 mm to a little over 200 mm above the opening, depending on the range, the spring type, whether there is an operator and whether the door has a pass door. When that space is not there, a low headroom kit changes the track geometry and spring position to fit in less, with some systems quoting as little as 70 to 125 mm.
Are there trade-offs?
Low headroom systems can cost more, can need a little more depth inside the garage, and some operators need a specific bracket or a different drive. We check all of this at survey.

Questions from Bognor Regis customers
Will a low headroom door look different?
From the outside it looks the same as any sectional door in the same finish.
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 the local district or 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 district or borough council before ordering.
