Choosing a side sectional door for a home in Cheltenham

Can you use it as a pedestrian door?

Yes. Because the door slides sideways, you can open it just far enough to walk through, which saves having a separate side door.

How does it compare on price?

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

Options and upgrades for Cheltenham homes

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

How much does a side sectional door cost in Cheltenham?

Guide price: from £3,495 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.

The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.

Planning and regulations for Cheltenham homes

The planning authority for Cheltenham is the local district or borough council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.

English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.

Will the local district or borough council need to approve my new garage door?

Usually not.

If in doubt, ask the local district or borough council before ordering.
