Sectional garage doors with a pass door: what matters for Grays garages

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.

What can you choose for your Grays garage?

  • Lock and handleMatched to the door.
  • Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
  • Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
  • Hinge sideLeft or right hand.

At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.

Do you need permission in Grays?

The planning authority for Grays is Thurrock 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 Grays 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.

Which parts of Grays do you cover?

We cover Grays across postcode districts RM16, RM17, RM18, RM20, along with nearby South Ockendon, Stanford-le-Hope and Basildon. Dates are agreed when you book.

Will Thurrock 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 Thurrock Council before ordering.
