What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Caerphilly?
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- 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.

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 in Wales before it starts.
Planning

Check first if your home is listed (listed building consent covers works that affect its character), is 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 Caerphilly: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Caerphilly?
Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Wales, 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Caerphilly?
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 Caerphilly. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Caerphilly?
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 Caerphilly as elsewhere we cover.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Caerphilly?
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 Caerphilly garage so you can compare.
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.
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.
