What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Leytonstone?
- 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.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.

Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Leytonstone: questions
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Leytonstone?
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 Leytonstone as elsewhere we cover.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Leytonstone?
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.
Is the survey in Leytonstone 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 Leytonstone than other towns in Greater London?
No. Guide prices are the same for Leytonstone 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.
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.
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.
