Choosing a sectional door with a pass door for a home in Plymouth
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.
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.

What rules apply in Plymouth?
The planning authority for Plymouth is Plymouth City Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.

Questions from Plymouth customers
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.
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.
Do you cover Plymouth?
Yes. We cover Plymouth, including postcode districts PL1, PL2, PL3, PL4, PL5, PL9. 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 Plymouth?
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 Plymouth City Council.
