Matching garage side doors in Gloucestershire
Our matching side door service covers Gloucestershire: Gloucester, Cheltenham, Stroud and Kingswood, plus the surrounding area, with each door made to measure after a free survey.
A matching garage side door is a pedestrian door made in the same panel design and colour as your sectional garage door, fitted to a separate opening in the side or back of the garage. It gives everyday access to the garage and the garden with a finish that matches the main door.

What should you know about matching side doors in Gloucestershire?
Will it fit my existing opening?
Side doors are made to measure or chosen from size ranges. Existing openings vary a lot, so they are measured at survey.
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.
Inward or outward opening?
Side doors can usually be hung to open in or out, left or right hand, to suit paths and the space inside.
Which options can you choose?
- Matched colourSame colour or woodgrain.
- LockingRobust or multi-point locks.
- Glazed top panelOptional on some ranges.
- Matched panel designRibs, flush or cassette to match.
How much does a matching side door cost in Gloucestershire?
Guide price: £995–£1,895 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.
The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
What rules apply in Gloucestershire?
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 in Gloucestershire is handled by the district and borough councils, not the county council (South Gloucestershire Council also cover parts of the area).

Do I need planning permission in Gloucestershire?
