Side sectional garage doors in Limavady

Key questions about side sectional doors in Limavady

When does a side sectional beat an overhead door?

If you have a low ceiling, a beam just above the opening, ceiling storage or a loft hatch you want to keep using, a side-sliding door avoids the ceiling altogether. It needs clear wall space on one side instead.

How does it compare on price?

Side sectional doors are more specialised, so they usually cost more than an equivalent overhead sectional door.

Planning and regulations for Limavady homes

If your property in Limavady is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Causeway Coast and Glens Borough Council is the authority to check with before ordering.

In Northern Ireland a new door within the existing opening generally needs no planning permission. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the exceptions.

Under the Windsor Framework, products placed on the market in Northern Ireland follow EU rules, so doors carry CE marking (with UKNI where a UK body assessed them). UKCA marking on its own is not accepted in Northern Ireland.
