Inward or outward opening?

Most matching side doors are steel with multi-point or robust locking. The specification is shown on your quote.
Why match the side door?

How much does a matching side door cost in Cumbria?
Guide price: £995–£1,895 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.
What rules apply in Cumbria?
In England, swapping a garage door for a new one, including an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission. Permission or consent can be needed if the house is listed, if it sits in a conservation area or is covered by an Article 4 direction, or if the new door would noticeably change how the house looks from the street. On many newer estates a planning condition removes permitted development rights or requires the garage to be kept for parking, so check your planning history before changing the door or the use of the garage.
Planning authorities in Cumbria include Cumberland Council and Westmorland and Furness Council.
