Choosing a single sectional door for a home in Thatcham
Can you widen the drive-through width?
Many single sectional doors are fitted behind the opening, which can give a slightly wider clear opening than the old frame allowed. The survey shows what clear width you will end up with.
What finishes suit a single door?
Every design in the range is available in single sizes, from fine ribs and flush panels to Georgian-style cassettes and woodgrain effects.

What will a single sectional door cost in Thatcham?

The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
What rules apply in Thatcham?
The planning authority for Thatcham is West Berkshire 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 Thatcham customers
Will I lose headroom inside the garage?
The door parks under the ceiling, so the clear height inside is reduced by the parked door and tracks. On low ceilings a low-headroom track keeps the door tighter to the ceiling.
Can a sectional door fit my existing opening?
In most cases, yes. We check headroom above the opening, side room for the tracks and the depth of the garage at survey.
Which parts of Thatcham do you cover?
We cover Thatcham across postcode districts RG14, RG18, RG19, along with nearby Newbury, Reading and Earley. Dates are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Thatcham?
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, check with West Berkshire Council.
