What should I know about low-headroom roller garage doors in Ashford (Kent)?
- Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.
- Consider where the power supply would reach the motor if the box ends up under the lintel or on the outside wall.
- Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.
- Remember that taller doors and larger laths both need bigger boxes, which affects what will fit in a tight space.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Ashford (Kent): questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Ashford (Kent)?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Ashford (Kent) 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.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Ashford (Kent)?
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.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ashford (Kent)?
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.
How much do low-headroom roller garage doors cost in Ashford (Kent)?
Our guide price for low-headroom roller garage doors is from £1,195 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 Ashford (Kent) as elsewhere we cover.
Can I move pipes or a light to make room for the box?
Sometimes that's the simplest answer. If a pipe, cable or light fitting sits just where the box needs to go, moving it may let the box go behind the lintel in the usual way. Any electrical changes should be made by a qualified electrician. We'll point out obstructions at survey and include any work we're doing in the written quote.
Is an insulated door possible with low headroom?
Often, yes. Insulated laths make a larger roll than single-skin laths of the same height, so the box is bigger. If that box won't fit behind the lintel, it can go under the lintel or in front of the wall. We'll show you the clear height you'd keep with each option, so you can decide whether insulation is worth the trade-off.
