Key questions about single sectional doors in Fareham
Why replace an up-and-over with a single sectional?
An up-and-over door tilts out and up, so you cannot park close to it and it eats into the width of the opening. A sectional door lifts straight up, keeps the full width usable, seals better and is easier to motorise.
What are the usual sizes?
Common UK openings are about 7 by 7 feet (2134 by 2134 mm), 7 feet 6 by 7 feet, and 8 by 7 feet (2438 by 2134 mm), but older and newer garages vary. The door is made to your measured opening.

Questions from Fareham 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.
Do you take the old door away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old door can be included in your quote.
Which parts of Fareham do you cover?

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Fareham?
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 district or borough council.
