What should Torquay homeowners know about ribbed sectional doors?
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Torquay garage?
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
- TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.
- WindowsOptional inserts in one section.

Planning and regulations for Torquay homes
The planning authority for Torquay is Torbay Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.
