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.

- FinishesMost ribbed, flush and woodgrain finishes, with vertical panel joints.

Questions from Bridgwater 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.
Do you cover Bridgwater?
Yes. We cover Bridgwater, including postcode districts TA6. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Somerset 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 Somerset Council before ordering.
