Matching garage side doors: what matters for Eccles garages
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.
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.
Which options are available in Eccles?
- Glazed top panelOptional on some ranges.
- Matched colourSame colour or woodgrain.
- LockingRobust or multi-point locks.
- Matched panel designRibs, flush or cassette to match.
What will a matching side door cost in Eccles?
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.
Planning and regulations for Eccles homes
If your property in Eccles is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Salford City Council is the authority to check with before ordering.
English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.

Questions from Eccles customers
Do you fit side doors on their own?
Yes, if the opening is sound. Most customers order them with a new garage door.
Can you match a side door to my existing sectional door?
Often, if the range and colour are still made. Bring the details or a photo and we check.
Do you cover Eccles?
Yes. We cover Eccles, including postcode districts M5, M6, M17, M27, M30, M32. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Eccles?
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 Salford City Council.
Do you also cover towns near Eccles?
Yes. Close to Eccles we also cover Salford (2 mi), Stretford (2 mi), Urmston (3 mi) and Walkden (4 mi).
