Questions from Islington customers
Does a woodgrain door need varnishing?
No. It is a factory finish on steel, so it only needs washing.
Can I get a real timber sectional door?
Timber sectional doors are available from some makers. We can quote, but they need regular finishing to stay in good condition.

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Islington?
Usually not. Replacing a garage door, including with an electric sectional door, does not normally need planning permission in England unless the house is listed, in a conservation area or Article 4 area, or has planning conditions affecting the garage. If in doubt, check with the local London borough council.
