Key questions about new sectional garage doors in Birkenhead

What happens on fitting day?

The old door is taken out, the opening is prepared, the frame and vertical tracks go in, the horizontal tracks are hung from the ceiling, the panels are assembled section by section, and the springs are fitted and set. The operator is fitted last, then everything is tested.

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.

How much does a new sectional garage door cost in Birkenhead?

Planning and regulations for Birkenhead homes

If your property in Birkenhead is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Wirral Council is the authority to check with before ordering.

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.

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 Birkenhead customers

How much does installation cost?

Installation is included in our supply-and-fit prices. A typical single door is around £2,095–£2,795 supplied and fitted.

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.

Which parts of Birkenhead do you cover?

We cover Birkenhead across postcode districts CH41, CH42, CH43, CH46, CH49, CH62, CH63, along with nearby Liverpool, Wallasey and Bebington. Dates are agreed when you book.

Will Wirral 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 Wirral Council before ordering.
