Side sectional garage doors – example of the door type

What should Leyland homeowners know about side sectional doors?

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.

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.

Which options are available in Leyland?

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

Guide price for a side sectional door in Leyland

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.

What rules apply in Leyland?

Leyland falls under the local district or borough council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.

In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.
