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 County Londonderry?
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.
Does it affect the operator?
Yes. The operator is linked to a safety switch so the main door cannot move while the pass door is open.
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?
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.

What rules apply in County Londonderry?
In Northern Ireland, fitting a new door within an existing opening generally does not need planning permission. If the property is listed, in a conservation area or covered by an Article 4 direction, check with your council planning office before ordering, as consent may be needed for changes to the outside of the building.
Planning authorities in County Londonderry include Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council, Derry City and Strabane District Council and Mid Ulster District Council.
Under the Windsor Framework, products placed on the market in Northern Ireland follow EU rules, so doors carry CE marking (with UKNI where a UK body assessed them). UKCA marking on its own is not accepted in Northern Ireland.
