Sectional garage doors with a pass door: what matters for Long Eaton garages
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.
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.
Which options are available in Long Eaton?
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.

Yes, there is a threshold. Low-threshold versions reduce it on some ranges.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Long Eaton?
Usually not.
