What should Risca homeowners know about single sectional doors?
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.
Manual or electric?
A well-balanced single sectional door is light enough to lift by hand, so manual operation is a valid choice and saves money. Most people still choose electric for convenience and security.

Questions from Risca customers
Can I have a manual door and add a motor later?
Usually, yes, as long as the door is suitable for powered operation and is set up and checked to the powered-door safety standard when the motor goes on.
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.
Do you cover Risca?
Yes. We cover Risca, including postcode districts NP11. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Caerphilly Council need to approve my new garage door?
Usually not. A replacement garage door of similar appearance is normally minor work in Wales, but listed buildings, conservation areas and planning conditions can change that. If in doubt, ask Caerphilly Council before ordering.
