Questions from Romford 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.
How much does a single sectional garage door cost?
A single sectional door, supplied and fitted, is roughly £1,695–£3,195. Manual budget doors sit at the lower end; insulated electric doors in premium finishes at the top.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Romford?
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 the local London borough council.
