Key questions about side sectional doors in Cardiff
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.
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.
What can you choose for your Cardiff garage?
- FinishesMost ribbed, flush and woodgrain finishes, with vertical panel joints.
- Partial openingWalk-through position on motorised versions.
- Electric or manualDedicated side-sliding operator or manual handle and lock.
How much does a side sectional door cost in Cardiff?
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.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Cardiff?
The planning authority for Cardiff is Cardiff Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
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 Cardiff customers
Can it open part-way?
Yes. Many installations use a pedestrian opening position so you can walk in without opening the whole door.
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.
Do you cover Cardiff?
Yes. We cover Cardiff, including postcode districts CF5, CF10, CF11, CF14, CF23, CF24. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Cardiff 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 Cardiff Council before ordering.
Do you also cover towns near Cardiff?
Yes. Close to Cardiff we also cover Penarth (3 mi), Caerphilly (7 mi), Barry (7 mi) and Risca (9 mi).
