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

Think about electric operation for any opening over 4 m, since the wide doubles in our price list are all electric.
Ask whether pier removal needs building regulations approval before planning to turn two openings into one.
Look along the lintel for cracks or sagging, because a wide door's box is fixed along its full length.
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 England

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.

Questions about double and wide roller garage doors in Tyne and Wear

Can I get a price without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type, or the visit price for a repair. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

Which towns do you cover in Tyne and Wear?

We cover Tyne and Wear, including Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, South Shields and Gateshead. Every town has its own page with local details, and you can start a guide price for any postcode in Tyne and Wear online.

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Tyne and Wear?

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.

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.

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.
