Choosing a new sectional garage door for a home in Bolton

What is checked at survey?

We measure the opening width and height, headroom above the opening, side room either side, the depth of the garage, and the condition of the brickwork, lintel and floor. We also look at power for an operator and anything that could get in the way of the tracks.

Do you supply doors for others to fit?

This service is supply and fit. Spring-loaded doors are dangerous to install without training, which is why we fit what we supply.

Planning and regulations for Bolton homes

The planning authority for Bolton is Bolton Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.

A new garage door in an existing opening is not normally development needing planning permission in England. The exceptions are listed buildings, conservation areas, Article 4 areas and estates where a planning condition restricts changes to the garage.

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 Bolton customers

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.

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 you cover Bolton?

Yes. We cover Bolton, including postcode districts BL1, BL2, BL3, BL4. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Bolton?

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, check with Bolton Council.
