Questions from Preston 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.

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.
