Choosing a new sectional garage door for a home in Christchurch
Why does balancing matter?
A balanced door should stay roughly where you leave it part-open. If the springs are set too light or too heavy, the door wears faster and the operator works harder. Balancing is a key step we never skip.
What paperwork will I get?
You get the door details, warranty information and, for powered doors, the safety checks carried out at handover, plus guidance on using the emergency release.
What can you choose for your Christchurch garage?

What will a new sectional garage door cost in Christchurch?
Guide price: £2,095–£2,795 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
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.
Do you need permission in Christchurch?
The planning authority for Christchurch is Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.
Operators normally run from a switched fused spur; adding one to an existing circuit is not notifiable in England, but a new circuit falls under Part P.

Questions from Christchurch customers
How long does it take to install a sectional garage door?
Most domestic doors are fitted in one day once the door has been made. The quote gives the expected lead time for manufacture.
Do I need to clear the garage?
Please clear the area just inside the opening and along both side walls and the ceiling for the length of the tracks.
Do you cover Christchurch?
Yes. We cover Christchurch, including postcode districts BH5, BH6, BH7, BH23. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole 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 Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Christchurch we also cover Bournemouth (4 mi), Ferndown (7 mi) and Poole (9 mi).
