Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Lisburn: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Lisburn?
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Northern Ireland, and widening the opening needs building control approval from your council. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.
Is the survey in Lisburn 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 Lisburn than other towns in County Antrim?
No. Guide prices are the same for Lisburn 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 get a price for Lisburn 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.
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.
Do I need planning permission to change to a roller door?
Changing the door on an existing garage opening usually doesn't need planning permission, but conservation areas, listed buildings, flats, and estates with planning conditions or covenants can be different. If any of those apply, check with your council or management company before you book. Our guide on planning permission and building regulations explains the questions to ask.
