What should you know about ribbed sectional doors in Northamptonshire?
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.
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.
What colours are available?
Ribbed doors come in standard colours such as white and anthracite grey on most ranges, with many RAL colours to order.
Which options can you choose?
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.

How much does a ribbed sectional door cost in Northamptonshire?
Guide price: £1,695–£2,795 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.
What rules apply in Northamptonshire?
In England, swapping a garage door for a new one, including an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission. Permission or consent can be needed if the house is listed, if it sits in a conservation area or is covered by an Article 4 direction, or if the new door would noticeably change how the house looks from the street. On many newer estates a planning condition removes permitted development rights or requires the garage to be kept for parking, so check your planning history before changing the door or the use of the garage.
Planning authorities in Northamptonshire include North Northamptonshire Council and West Northamptonshire Council.
