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

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.
Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.

Rules that apply in Wellingborough

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 Wellingborough: questions

Do you cover Wellingborough?

Yes. Wellingborough is part of the area we cover in Northamptonshire, including NN8. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Wellingborough?

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.

How much do double and wide roller garage doors cost in Wellingborough?

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 Wellingborough as elsewhere we cover.

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

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 Wellingborough garage so you can compare.

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.

Will a roller door give me more width than my double up-and-over door?

Possibly a little. An up-and-over door has a frame and swing-out arms at the sides, and a roller door doesn't, so converting can improve the clear width slightly. The guide rails still need some side room at each end. We measure the clear width you'd get at survey, so you know before ordering.
