Matching garage side doors in Merseyside
Our matching side door service covers Merseyside: Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens and Southport, 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 Merseyside?
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.
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.
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.
Which options can you choose?
- LockingRobust or multi-point locks.
- Matched panel designRibs, flush or cassette to match.
- Matched colourSame colour or woodgrain.
- Glazed top panelOptional on some ranges.
How much does a matching side door cost in Merseyside?
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.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Merseyside?
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 Merseyside include Knowsley Council, Liverpool City Council, Sefton Council, St Helens Council and Wirral Council.

Questions about matching garage side doors in Merseyside
How much is a matching garage side door?
A matching side door supplied and fitted is typically around £995–£1,895, depending on size and finish.
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.
Which towns in Merseyside do you cover?
We cover Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens, Southport, Wallasey, Bootle, Bebington and Huyton and other towns across Merseyside.
Do I need planning permission in Merseyside?
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. Check with your local planning authority if in doubt.
