Side sectional garage doors – example of the door type

What should Ashington homeowners know about side sectional doors?

How does it compare on price?

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

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.

Which options are available in Ashington?

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

Questions from Ashington 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 it open part-way?

Yes. Many installations use a pedestrian opening position so you can walk in without opening the whole door.

Do you cover Ashington?

Yes. We cover Ashington, including postcode districts NE22, NE62, NE63, NE64. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Will Northumberland County 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 Northumberland County Council before ordering.

Do you also cover towns near Ashington?

Yes. Close to Ashington we also cover Bedlington (3 mi), Blyth (4 mi), Cramlington (6 mi) and Whitley Bay (11 mi).
