What should I know about manual roller garage doors in Ludlow?
- If the door is for a lock-up or garage court, list each opening separately, as every door is measured and priced for its own opening.
- Check the floor across the opening is level, because the bottom rail needs to sit evenly for the lock to engage properly.
- Measure the headroom above the opening, as the coiled curtain still needs a box at the top even without a motor.
- Check whether the garage has power, because a manual door needs none, while converting to electric later would need a supply near the box.

Rules that apply in Ludlow
Electrics
An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.
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.
Manual roller garage doors in Ludlow: questions
How much do manual roller garage doors cost in Ludlow?
Our guide price for manual roller garage doors is from £895 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 Ludlow as elsewhere we cover.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Ludlow?
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 Ludlow garage so you can compare.
Can you remove my old garage door in Ludlow?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Ludlow 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 I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ludlow?
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.
Can I fit a manual roller door to a garage with no electricity?
Yes, and that's one of its main advantages. A manual door needs no motor, no control box and no power supply, so it suits detached garages, lock-ups and outbuildings without electrics. If you want an electric door there later, a qualified electrician would need to provide a fused spur, which adds cost and depends on getting a supply to the garage.
Can a manual roller door be converted to electric later?
Only if the existing door is right for it. A manual-to-electric conversion needs the curtain, barrel, box and guides to be sound and compatible with a tubular motor, and a power supply has to be added near the box. We check all of this at a free survey. If the door isn't suitable, we'll tell you plainly and price a new electric door.
