Side sectional garage doors: what matters for Newtown 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.
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.
What can you choose for your Newtown garage?
- 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.
What will a side sectional door cost in Newtown?
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 Newtown?
Newtown falls under Powys Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
A replacement garage door in Wales rarely needs planning permission. Check with the planning authority if your home is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with conditions.

Questions from Newtown customers
Can it open part-way?
Yes. Many installations use a pedestrian opening position so you can walk in without opening the whole door.
Can a side sectional door be insulated?
Yes, the panels are insulated in the same way as overhead sectional doors.
Which parts of Newtown do you cover?
We cover Newtown across postcode districts SY16, along with nearby Welshpool. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will Powys Council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not. A replacement garage door of similar appearance is normally minor work in Wales, but listed buildings, conservation areas and planning conditions can change that. If in doubt, ask Powys Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Newtown we also cover Welshpool (12 mi).
