Key questions about replacement sectional doors in Hythe
Will the opening need work?
Most openings take a sectional door with little preparation. Sometimes old timber subframes, damaged brick returns or an uneven floor need attention first. The survey picks this up so the price does not change on the day.
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.
