Choosing a large sectional door for a home in Farnham
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.
Do tall doors need more headroom?
A tall door needs a correspondingly long horizontal track and a suitable ceiling or roof structure to fix it to. Barns and garages with pitched roofs often have room for a high-lift or vertical-lift track that keeps the door higher up the roof slope.
What can you choose for your Farnham garage?
- High-lift tracksUse roof height so the door parks higher.
- Heavier springsSpring sets sized to the larger door weight.
- Shaft or rail operatorSpecified to the door size.
- Vision rowsWindows across one section.
How much does a large sectional door cost in Farnham?
Guide price: from £4,495 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
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.
