What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Sandhurst?
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- Taking out the up-and-over tracks frees the garage ceiling for shelving, storage or better lighting.

Rules that apply in Sandhurst
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.
Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Sandhurst: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Sandhurst?
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 Sandhurst. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
What do you check at a survey in GU47?
At a survey in GU47 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Sandhurst?
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 you remove my old garage door in Sandhurst?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Sandhurst 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.
Will I lose height in the opening with a roller door?
Not usually, if the box can sit behind the lintel inside the garage, which is the normal position. If there's too little headroom inside, the box can go under the lintel, which does reduce the clear opening height, or be face-fixed on the front of the wall. We measure this at the survey and tell you before you commit.
Is converting from up-and-over to roller worth it?
It depends on how you use the garage and the drive. A roller door doesn't swing out, so you can park closer; it frees the garage ceiling; and insulated laths cut draughts and noise compared with an uninsulated panel. The free survey and written quote give you the actual figure to weigh against those benefits.
