Key questions about side sectional doors in Pontefract
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.

How much does a side sectional door cost in Pontefract?
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 Pontefract?
If your property in Pontefract is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Wakefield Council is the authority to check with before ordering.
In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.

Questions from Pontefract customers
Can a side sectional door be insulated?
Yes, the panels are insulated in the same way as overhead sectional doors.
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 Pontefract?
Yes. We cover Pontefract, including postcode districts WF7, WF8, WF10, WF11. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Wakefield 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 Wakefield Council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Pontefract we also cover Castleford (3 mi), South Elmsall (7 mi), Wakefield (8 mi) and Ossett (11 mi).
