Choosing a single sectional door for a home in Clacton-on-Sea

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.
