What should you know about ribbed sectional doors in County Londonderry?
Fine ribs or large ribs?
Fine ribs give a busy, textured look that suits most homes and hides small marks well. Large ribs give a calmer, more architectural look with fewer lines, and suit modern houses and wide doors.
Do ribs affect strength?
The pressed ribs stiffen the steel skin slightly, which helps wide doors stay flat. Insulated cores do most of the stiffening on double-skin panels.
Is a ribbed door the cheapest option?
Ribbed designs in white are often the entry point to a range, which makes them good value, but premium ranges offer ribbed panels too.
Which options can you choose?
- WindowsOptional inserts in one section.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
- TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.

What rules apply in County Londonderry?
In Northern Ireland, fitting a new door within an existing opening generally does not need planning permission. If the property is listed, in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction, check with your council planning office before ordering, as consent may be needed for changes to the outside of the building.
Planning authorities in County Londonderry include Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Derry City and Strabane District Council and Mid Ulster District Council.
Under the Windsor Framework, products placed on the market in Northern Ireland follow EU rules, so doors carry CE marking (with UKNI where a UK body assessed them). UKCA marking on its own is not accepted in Northern Ireland.
