What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Melksham?
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- Taking out the up-and-over tracks frees the garage ceiling for shelving, storage or better lighting.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- 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 Melksham
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.

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 Melksham: questions
What do you check at a survey in SN12?
At a survey in SN12 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.

No. Guide prices are the same for Melksham as for anywhere else we cover in Wiltshire. 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.

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Melksham?
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 Melksham. 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.
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.
