Up-and-over to sectional door replacement – example of the door type

Choosing a replacement sectional door for a home in Didcot

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.

What can you choose for your Didcot garage?

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

Questions from Didcot customers

How much does it cost to replace an up-and-over door with a sectional?

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.

Usually not.
