Key questions about woodgrain sectional doors in Gateshead
Which effects are popular?
Golden oak suits cottages and brick homes, darker walnut and rosewood suit stone and render, and grey-washed effects work on contemporary houses.
Why not a real timber sectional door?
Real timber sectional doors exist and look superb, but timber moves with the seasons and needs regular finishing. A woodgrain-effect steel door keeps its colour and shape with only an occasional wash.

Questions from Gateshead customers
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.
Does a woodgrain door need varnishing?
No. It is a factory finish on steel, so it only needs washing.

We cover Gateshead across postcode districts NE1, NE2, NE4, NE6, NE8, NE99, along with nearby Newcastle upon Tyne, Gosforth and Wallsend. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will Gateshead Council need to approve my new garage door?
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, ask Gateshead Council before ordering.
