What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Winchester?
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- Electric conversions are commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and a Declaration of Conformity at handover.
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.

Rules that apply in Winchester
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 Winchester: questions
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Winchester?
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 Winchester garage so you can compare.
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Winchester?
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 Winchester as elsewhere we cover.
Is the survey in Winchester 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Winchester?
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 Winchester. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
