What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Corby?
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- 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 Corby
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 Corby: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Corby?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Corby address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.
Is the survey in Corby 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 I need permission for a new roller garage door in Corby?
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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Corby?
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 Corby. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
