Side sectional garage doors: what matters for Sleaford garages

How much side room is needed?

The door parks along one side wall, so that wall needs to be clear for roughly the width of the door, plus a small amount of side room on the other jamb. Shelving, windows or a side door on the parking wall can rule it out, which is why we look at the whole garage at survey.

Is it electric?

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

Which options are available in Sleaford?

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

How much does a side sectional door cost in Sleaford?

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.

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.

Questions from Sleaford 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.

Can a side sectional door be insulated?

Yes, the panels are insulated in the same way as overhead sectional doors.

Which parts of Sleaford do you cover?

We cover Sleaford across postcode districts NG34, along with nearby Grantham. 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.
