- Heavier springsSpring sets sized to the larger door weight.

Questions from Bootle customers
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.
Can you fit a sectional door to a motorhome garage?
Yes, provided the building has the height and structure for the tracks and the door. We measure headroom, side room and depth at survey.

Yes. We cover Bootle, including postcode districts L9, L20, L21, L22, L23, L30. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Sefton 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 Sefton Council before ordering.
