Questions from Hemel Hempstead 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.

Do you cover Hemel Hempstead?

Yes. We cover Hemel Hempstead, including postcode districts HP1, HP2, HP3. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Will the local district or borough council need to approve my new garage door?

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, ask the local district or borough council before ordering.

Yes. Close to Hemel Hempstead we also cover Berkhamsted (5 mi), St Albans (5 mi), Harpenden (6 mi) and Watford (7 mi).
