Single sectional garage doors in Antrim

Choosing a single sectional door for a home in Antrim

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.

How long does the job take?

Swapping a single door is normally a one-day job: the old door comes out, the opening is prepared, and the new door is fitted, balanced, tested and handed over.

What rules apply in Antrim?

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

In Northern Ireland a new door within the existing opening generally needs no planning permission. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the exceptions.

Under the Windsor Framework, products placed on the market in Northern Ireland follow EU rules, so doors carry CE marking (with UKNI where a UK body assessed them). UKCA marking on its own is not accepted in Northern Ireland.
