Side sectional garage doors: what matters for Wolverhampton 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 Wolverhampton garage?
- 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.

Will City of Wolverhampton Council need to approve my new garage door?
