Side sectional garage doors – example of the door type

What should Shipley homeowners know about side sectional doors?

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.

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.

Options and upgrades for Shipley homes

What will a side sectional door cost in Shipley?

Guide price: from £3,495 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.

At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.

Planning and regulations for Shipley homes

The planning authority for Shipley is Bradford Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.

English planning rules normally treat a replacement garage door as permitted. Listed status, conservation areas, Article 4 directions and estate planning conditions are what can change that.

Questions from Shipley customers

Can a side sectional door be insulated?

Will Bradford Council need to approve my new garage door?

Usually not.

If in doubt, ask Bradford Council before ordering.
