Side sectional garage doors – example of the door type

Choosing a side sectional door for a home in Ilkeston

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.

Is it electric?

Side sectional doors can be motorised with a dedicated operator that runs along the head track. Manual versions are also available.

What can you choose for your Ilkeston garage?

  • Electric or manualDedicated side-sliding operator or manual handle and lock.
  • Partial openingWalk-through position on motorised versions.
  • FinishesMost ribbed, flush and woodgrain finishes, with vertical panel joints.

What will a side sectional door cost in Ilkeston?

Guide price: from £3,495 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.

Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.

Do you need permission in Ilkeston?

Questions from Ilkeston customers

Will a side sectional fit if I have a side door?

It depends where the side door is. The parking wall needs to be clear, so a side door on that wall can stop it fitting.

How much is a side sectional garage door?

As a guide, a side sectional door supplied and fitted is from £3,495, depending on size, finish and whether it is electric.

Which parts of Ilkeston do you cover?

We cover Ilkeston across postcode districts DE7, NG10, along with nearby Heanor, Long Eaton and Ripley. 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.
