What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Swindon?
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.
- Taking out the up-and-over tracks frees the garage ceiling for shelving, storage or better lighting.
- The old up-and-over panel, its springs or counterweights, tracks and arms are removed and taken away as part of the price.

Rules that apply in Swindon
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 Swindon: questions
What do you check at a survey in SN1?
At a survey in SN1 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.
Do you charge more for Swindon than other towns in Wiltshire?
No. Guide prices are the same for Swindon 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 get a price for Swindon without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Swindon?
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 Swindon. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
