What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Hailsham?
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.

Rules that apply in Hailsham
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 Hailsham: questions
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Hailsham?
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 Hailsham. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
What do you check at a survey in BN27?
At a survey in BN27 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.
Do you charge more for Hailsham than other towns in East Sussex?
No. Guide prices are the same for Hailsham as for anywhere else we cover in East Sussex. 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.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Hailsham?
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 Hailsham garage so you can compare.
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.
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.
