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

Questions from Hemel Hempstead customers
Is there a step to get through a pass door?
Yes, there is a threshold. Low-threshold versions reduce it on some ranges.
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.
Which parts of Hemel Hempstead do you cover?
We cover Hemel Hempstead across postcode districts HP1, HP2, HP3, along with nearby Berkhamsted, St Albans and Harpenden. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will the local district or borough 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 the local district or borough council before ordering.
