Sectional garage doors with a pass door – example of the door type

What should Southport homeowners know about sectional doors with a pass door?

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.

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.

Options and upgrades for Southport homes

  • 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.

Guide price for a sectional door with a pass door in Southport

Guide price: from £3,995 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.

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 Southport?

Southport falls under Sefton Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.

A new garage door in an existing opening is not normally development needing planning permission in England. The exceptions are listed buildings, conservation areas, Article 4 areas and estates where a planning condition restricts changes to the garage.

Questions from Southport 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.

Is there a step to get through a pass door?

Yes, there is a threshold. Low-threshold versions reduce it on some ranges.

Do you cover Southport?

Yes. We cover Southport, including postcode districts L20, L21, L22, L30, L37, L38, PR8, PR9. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Will Sefton 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 Sefton Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Southport we also cover Formby (7 mi), Maghull (9 mi), Litherland (12 mi) and Kirkby (12 mi).
