Types of garage door
There are plenty of options when it comes to garage doors, from traditional up and over models to sectional and roller doors. For an authentic look with maximum curb appeal, you could even opt for a side-hinged door. Whatever door you choose, make sure it allows you to use your garage the way you want to.
It’s worth considering an electric or automatic door too. While this might seem something of a luxury, this type of system isn’t as expensive as you might think, and it could turn your garage into a more appealing space.
There are four main types of garage door: up and over, sectional, roller and side-hinged doors.
- Up and over doors. By far the most common type of garage doors, up and over doors are reliable, easy to use and available in a variety of designs. These doors are fitted with a spring mechanism to prevent them from dropping down when raised and usually have a strong box steel sectional chassis for added support. Up and over doors are typically available in four materials – steel, timber, GRP and PVC – and can be fitted for manual or electric operation.
- Sectional doors. This type of door is split into sections which means minimum space is taken up by the door when it’s folded away. And that gives you more room in your garage. Sectional doors can be supplied with a range of insulation options and some manufacturers will include rubber weather seals to retain heat and keep water out. Sectional doors can be operated manually or via an electric motor.
- Roller doors. This garage door is formed from aluminium slats, which roll up and fit neatly into a box atop your garage door opening. Roller doors are ideal if you’re looking to save space in your garage. While they’re most frequently operated via an electric motor, these doors can also be opened and closed easily by hand thanks to their sprung system. As with other door types, a range of colour and finish options are available – even wood effect.
- Side-hinged doors. Opening outwards, these doors maximise space inside your garage. Side-hinged doors are built onto a steel frame, and it’s important to make sure they have weather seals to prevent wind and rain from entering your garage. These doors are usually available in both steel and timber, with different designs and colour options, so you can find the right style for your home.
The qualifications your garage door installer needs
Unlike work carried out on standard doors and windows, your professional won’t need FENSA certification. FENSA is the body that ensures compliant, competent and professional service in the double-glazing sector. The most important criteria to look for is plenty of experience installing and maintaining garage doors, with lots of customer references available too.
Other garage door installation FAQ's
Do I need planning permission to install a new garage door?
In most cases, you do not need planning permission to replace or install a garage door, provided the work falls under permitted development. However, if you live in a listed building or a designated conservation area, you will need to check with your local council as visual amenity guidelines apply. It is always best to ensure your chosen style is in keeping with the appearance of your home and neighbouring properties.
What insurance and warranties should a garage door installer have?
The main insurance requirement you’ll need to consider when having a garage door installed is public liability cover. This will protect you and your tradesperson against any damage caused during the fitting of your new garage door.
Most garage door systems will also come with a warranty. Make sure you’re provided with the necessary documents, so you’re covered in case anything goes wrong with your door.
Questions you should ask your strong garage door installer
Before hiring, you should ask the professional which door type they recommend for your specific garage space and request a portfolio of their previous installations. If you are opting for an automated system, ask what regular maintenance schedule they recommend to keep the electric motor running safely. Finally, always confirm whether they provide a written warranty on their installation work.

Very knowledgeable in his field We are very happy with our new mortice lock
builder from Ukraine living in UK
He was very good at the job and finished on time etc. The one thing I found slightly annoying was the urgency to finish the job and get the money, ie insisting that he paints the fence even though it was forecast to almost certainly rain that day and receiving multiple calls from his wife etc to our pressure. Overall though I am pleased with the end result and will use him again if given a chance

Fantastic service from Paul. He arrived on time, was very friendly, and completed the job to a high standard. He was always Prompt & Professional, his pricing is very competitive. I highly recommend and use him again.

Hello im Dan I have been working as an electrician since I left school so ive been working in this industry for 12 years now I have had experience in all types of electrical work mostly though I take a lot of pride in my work
Simply brilliant. Dan didn't just show up on time, he showed up early (and early in the day as well) so we could get on with the rest of our morning. He brought the parts just based on the picture which speaks to experience and even when he needed to swap a part, was able to do it as soon as a nearby shop opened. His work was very tidy (I've had a couple of people sort out the same problem before) and he was clearly knew what he was doing. Very, very pleased.
