Sectional garage doors with a pass door in Hampshire
Our sectional door with a pass door service covers Hampshire: Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke and Gosport, plus the surrounding area, with each door made to measure after a free survey.
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 Hampshire?
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.
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 can you choose?
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
How much does a sectional door with a pass door cost in Hampshire?
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.
The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
What rules apply in Hampshire?
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 Hampshire is handled by the district and borough councils, not the county council (Portsmouth City Council and Southampton City Council also cover parts of the area).

Questions about sectional garage doors with a pass door in Hampshire
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.
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 towns in Hampshire do you cover?
We cover Southampton, Portsmouth, Basingstoke, Gosport, Waterlooville, Farnborough, Eastleigh and Winchester and other towns across Hampshire.
Do I need planning permission in Hampshire?
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.
