What should Yate homeowners know about large sectional doors?
When is a door oversized?
Anything taller than about 2.3 metres or wider than a typical double, roughly 5 metres, usually moves into larger spring and track specifications. Motorhome garages often need heights of 3 metres or more.
Is a domestic operator enough?
Not always. Larger, heavier doors need an operator rated for the size, and very large doors may use a shaft-mounted operator instead of a ceiling rail.
What can you choose for your Yate garage?
- Vision rowsWindows across one section.
- Heavier springsSpring sets sized to the larger door weight.
- Shaft or rail operatorSpecified to the door size.
- High-lift tracksUse roof height so the door parks higher.

Do you need permission in Yate?

Questions from Yate customers
How much is a large or oversized sectional door?
Large doors are priced on survey because size and structure vary so much. As a guide they start from £4,495 supplied and fitted.
Will a large door need a special motor?
It needs an operator rated for its size and weight, which may be a heavier rail operator or a shaft-mounted unit.
Which parts of Yate do you cover?
We cover Yate across postcode districts BS37, along with nearby Kingswood. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will South Gloucestershire 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 South Gloucestershire Council before ordering.
