Sectional garage doors with a pass door in Cambridgeshire
We supply and fit sectional doors with a pass door across Cambridgeshire, including Peterborough, Cambridge, Wisbech and St Neots, with a free survey and a fixed written price for every door.
A sectional garage door with a pass door has a small hinged pedestrian door, often called a wicket door, built into its panels, so you can walk in and out without raising the whole door. It suits garages with no separate side door and wide doors that are slow or wasteful to open just to fetch something.

What should you know about sectional doors with a pass door in Cambridgeshire?
Why choose a pass door?
Opening a whole garage door to grab a bike or bin lets out heat and takes time. A pass door gives quick, everyday access and keeps the main door shut.
Can every door have one?
Pass doors are only offered on certain ranges, widths and designs, and the door must be wide enough to accommodate the pass door with sections either side.
Are there threshold limits?
A pass door sits within the bottom section, so there is a threshold to step over. Some ranges offer low-threshold designs that are easier to use, but it is never as level as a separate side door.
Which options can you choose?
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
How much does a sectional door with a pass door cost in Cambridgeshire?
Guide price: from £3,995 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Cambridgeshire?
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 in Cambridgeshire is handled by the district and borough councils, not the county council (Peterborough City Council also cover parts of the area).

Questions about sectional garage doors with a pass door in Cambridgeshire
How much does a pass door add?
A sectional door with an integrated pass door is typically from £3,995 supplied and fitted, as it is a specialist build.
Can a pass door be added to my existing sectional door?
Not usually. The pass door is built into the door at the factory, so it is ordered with a new door.
Is there a step to get through a pass door?
Yes, there is a threshold. Low-threshold versions reduce it on some ranges.
Which towns in Cambridgeshire do you cover?
We cover Peterborough, Cambridge, Wisbech, St Neots, Huntingdon, March, Ely and Newmarket and other towns across Cambridgeshire.
Do I need planning permission in Cambridgeshire?
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. Check with your local planning authority if in doubt.
