Key questions about matching side doors in Chester
Why match the side door?
An old timber side door next to a new sectional door looks tired. A matched side door in the same rib pattern, woodgrain or colour pulls the whole garage together.
Can it be fitted at the same time?
Yes. Ordering the side door with the garage door keeps the finishes matched and means one visit for fitting.
