What should I know about coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Leicester?

Remember that a large flat door can make a colour look slightly different from the same shade on a narrow window frame.
Decide whether you want the guide rails and box in the same finish, especially if the box will be face-fitted outside.
Ask whether the colour you want is in the manufacturer's range, because colours outside it are priced separately on survey.
Check with your local planning authority before changing colour if your home is listed or in a conservation area.

Rules that apply in Leicester

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission. Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), sits in a conservation area with an Article 4 direction, or is on an estate where planning conditions or covenants control garage doors.

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Coloured and woodgrain roller garage doors in Leicester: questions

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Leicester?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Do you charge more for Leicester than other towns in Leicestershire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Leicester as for anywhere else we cover in Leicestershire. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Leicester?

Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Leicester. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

What do you check at a survey in LE1?

At a survey in LE1 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.

Can I have different colours on the inside and outside of the door?

That depends on what the manufacturer offers for the door you choose, because the finish options for the inside face of the curtain vary from one model to another. Tell us at the survey if the inside colour matters to you, for example on an integral garage you use as a utility space, and we'll confirm it in writing.

Will the guide rails and box match the door colour?

It's worth asking at the survey. On most fittings the box sits inside the garage, but the guide rails can be visible from outside, and a face-fitted box is fully on show. Finish options for the guides and box depend on the door model, so tell us what you'd like and the quote will state exactly what's included.
