Up-and-over to sectional door replacement: what matters for Tonbridge 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.

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 can you choose for your Tonbridge garage?

  • TrimsTo tidy reveals and the head.
  • Electric upgradeOperator and remotes.
  • Fit behind the openingFor maximum clear width.
  • Removal and disposalOld door, frame and springs.

Guide price for a replacement sectional door in Tonbridge

Guide price: £2,095–£2,795 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.

At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.

What rules apply in Tonbridge?

Planning questions for homes in Tonbridge go to the local district or borough council. Most garage door swaps need no permission, but conservation areas and listed buildings are the exceptions.

In England you can usually replace a garage door without planning permission. Check first if the house is listed, sits in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or was built with planning conditions covering the garage.

Questions from Tonbridge customers

A typical single replacement, with the old door removed and a new insulated electric sectional fitted, is around £2,095–£2,795.

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.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Tonbridge?

Usually not.

If in doubt, check with the local district or borough council.
