What should I know about double and wide roller garage doors in Thatcham?

Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.
Think about electric operation for any opening over 4 m, since the wide doubles in our price list are all electric.
Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.
Make sure there's a clear route from the road to the garage, because a curtain for a wide opening is long and awkward to carry.

Rules that apply in Thatcham

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.

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.

Double and wide roller garage doors in Thatcham: questions

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

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 Thatcham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Do you cover Thatcham?

Yes. Thatcham is part of the area we cover in Berkshire, including RG19, RG18 and RG14. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Thatcham?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Thatcham garage so you can compare.

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

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.

Is a manual roller door practical on a double garage?

It can be, but only up to 4 m in our price list, and you'll be lifting a long curtain by hand each time, even with spring assistance. For a garage opened every day, or anyone who would find that hard work, an electric door is usually the better choice. Wide doubles between 4 and 5.5 m in our price list are electric.

What if my garage opening is wider than 5.5 m?

We price it on survey. Openings over 5.5 m fall outside our standard price bands, because the door, the lintel and the fixing points need to be checked and specified individually. You can still use the online tool to tell us about the opening, and we'll arrange a free survey and give you a written quote.
