What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Ashford (Surrey)?
- The old up-and-over panel, its springs or counterweights, tracks and arms are removed and taken away as part of the price.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.
- Taking out the up-and-over tracks frees the garage ceiling for shelving, storage or better lighting.

Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Ashford (Surrey): questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Ashford (Surrey)?
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.
Do you charge more for Ashford (Surrey) than other towns in Surrey?
No. Guide prices are the same for Ashford (Surrey) as for anywhere else we cover in Surrey. 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.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Ashford (Surrey)?
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 Ashford (Surrey) garage so you can compare.
Do you cover Ashford (Surrey)?
Yes. Ashford (Surrey) is part of the area we cover in Surrey, including TW15, TW18 and TW16. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
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.
