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

Decide whether one wide door or two single doors suits how you use the garage, especially if there is a central pier.
Allow extra headroom for a wide door, since larger laths make a bigger roll and need a deeper box.
Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.
Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.

Rules that apply in Stowmarket

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 Stowmarket: questions

Do you cover Stowmarket?

Yes. Stowmarket is part of the area we cover in Suffolk, including IP14. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Do you charge more for Stowmarket than other towns in Suffolk?

No. Guide prices are the same for Stowmarket as for anywhere else we cover in Suffolk. 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 long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Stowmarket?

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 message you a photo of my garage in Stowmarket?

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

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.

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.
