What should Bournemouth homeowners know about replacement sectional doors?
Does the sectional door go behind or in the opening?
Fitting behind the opening usually gives the best clear width and seals well against the inside face of the wall. In some garages fitting within the opening is necessary; the survey decides.
What happens to the old door?
We remove it, including its springs and frame, and take it away for disposal or recycling where quoted.

The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
Planning and regulations for Bournemouth homes
The planning authority for Bournemouth is Bournemouth, Christchurch and Poole Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
A new garage door in an existing opening is not normally development needing planning permission in England. The exceptions are listed buildings, conservation areas, Article 4 areas and estates where a planning condition restricts changes to the garage.
