What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Aldridge?
- 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.
- The old up-and-over panel, its springs or counterweights, tracks and arms are removed and taken away as part of the price.
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.

Rules that apply in Aldridge
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.

What do you check at a survey in WS9?
At a survey in WS9 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
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.
