What should I know about double and wide roller garage doors in Folkestone?
- Look along the lintel for cracks or sagging, because a wide door's box is fixed along its full length.
- Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.
- Decide whether one wide door or two single doors suits how you use the garage, especially if there is a central pier.
- Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.

Rules that apply in Folkestone
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 Folkestone: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Folkestone?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Folkestone address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.
Do you charge more for Folkestone than other towns in Kent?
No. Guide prices are the same for Folkestone as for anywhere else we cover in Kent. 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.
How much do double and wide roller garage doors cost in Folkestone?
Our guide price for double and wide roller garage doors is from £1,395 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Folkestone as elsewhere we cover.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Folkestone?
Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.
Can I convert a double up-and-over door to a roller door?
Yes. We remove the old door and its frame, or keep the frame if it's sound, then check the lintel and reveals. The box is fitted behind the lintel and the guides to the reveals. Any extra work, such as a new lintel or building out the reveals, is priced on survey and listed separately in your written quote.
Do I need permission to turn two garage openings into one?
Removing a pier and fitting a longer lintel is structural work, and it may need Building Regulations approval. Whether planning permission is needed depends on your property, so check with your local authority, especially for listed buildings or homes in a conservation area. Our guide to planning and building regulations covers the questions to ask.
