Up-and-over to sectional door replacement: what matters for Newton Aycliffe garages
Can I keep the car in the garage that day?
No. The garage needs to be clear just inside the opening while we work. Everything else can stay.

Which options are available in Newton Aycliffe?

- Fit behind the openingFor maximum clear width.
- Removal and disposalOld door, frame and springs.
- TrimsTo tidy reveals and the head.

Questions from Newton Aycliffe customers
Is an up-and-over door dangerous when its springs go?
A failing up-and-over door can drop suddenly. If yours is slamming shut or feels heavy, stop using it and get it checked.
Can the new door be wider than the old one?
Fitting behind the opening often gives more clear width than the old frame did, but the brick opening itself sets the limit.
