Choosing a sectional door with a pass door for a home in Hinckley
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.
Is a separate side door better?
If there is space for a side door, it is usually easier to use and keeps the main door simpler. Where there is not, a pass door is the neat answer.
Which options are available in Hinckley?
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.

Questions from Hinckley 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 Hinckley do you cover?
We cover Hinckley across postcode districts LE9, LE10, along with nearby Earl Shilton, Wigston and Leicester. Dates are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Hinckley?
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 the local district or borough council.
