What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Battersea?
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.
- Electric conversions are commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and a Declaration of Conformity at handover.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.

Rules that apply in Battersea
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.

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 Battersea: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Battersea?
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in England, and widening the opening needs building control approval. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Battersea?
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 Battersea as elsewhere we cover.
What do you check at a survey in SW11?
At a survey in SW11 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 Battersea than other towns in Greater London?
No. Guide prices are the same for Battersea as for anywhere else we cover in Greater London. 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.
Does a roller door need more headroom than an up-and-over?
A roller door needs headroom above the opening for its box, while an up-and-over needs space inside the garage for its tracks and for the panel when it's open. Domestic roller boxes are commonly around 205 to 300 mm or more, depending on door height and lath size. If there isn't room behind the lintel, other box positions are possible.
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.
