What should Newcastle upon Tyne homeowners know about sectional doors with a pass 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.

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.

Questions from Newcastle upon Tyne 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 I need planning permission for a new garage door in Newcastle upon Tyne?

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 Newcastle City Council.
