Key questions about single sectional doors in Aberdare
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.
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.

Questions from Aberdare 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.

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 Aberdare?
