Rules that apply in Larne
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 Larne: questions
What do you check at a survey in BT40?
At a survey in BT40 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.
Is the survey in Larne 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.
Can I get a price for Larne without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Can you remove my old garage door in Larne?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Larne 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.
