What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Belfast?
- The old up-and-over panel, its springs or counterweights, tracks and arms are removed and taken away as part of the price.
- Taking out the up-and-over tracks frees the garage ceiling for shelving, storage or better lighting.
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.

Rules that apply in Belfast
Structural work
Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need building control approval from your council under the Building Regulations (Northern Ireland) 2012 before work starts.
Planning
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Northern Ireland. Listed building consent applies to listed buildings, and conservation-area controls, planning conditions or covenants can restrict changes to how a garage looks, so check before ordering.
Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Belfast: questions
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Belfast?
Our guide price for up-and-over to roller door conversion 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 Belfast as elsewhere we cover.
Is the survey in Belfast really free?
Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.
Do you charge more for Belfast than other towns in County Antrim?
No. Guide prices are the same for Belfast as for anywhere else we cover in County Antrim. 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Belfast?
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 Belfast. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Can you keep my existing up-and-over frame?
Sometimes. If the frame is sound, square and securely fixed, it can stay as a finish around the opening and the roller door is fitted to suit it. If it's rotten, damaged or out of square, we take it out and prepare the opening for the new door. The survey decides which applies to your garage.
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.
