Planning and safety in Antrim
In Antrim, planning follows the Planning Act (Northern Ireland) 2011 and the NI permitted development rules.
- Planning: Replacing a garage door is not usually a planning matter, but listed buildings and conditions on newer estates can restrict changes, so check if unsure.
- Safety devices: Powered doors need force limiting or a safety edge and must be set up and tested at installation. We hand over the instructions and a record of the settings.
- Power cut: Every powered door has a manual release so it can be opened by hand. If the garage is your only way into the house, ask about battery backup.

Frequently asked questions
Are roller garage doors insulated?
The doors we recommend use foam-filled aluminium laths, which reduce heat loss and noise compared with a single-skin steel up-and-over door.
What if the power fails?
Each door has a manual release inside the garage so it can be opened by hand. Battery backup is available if the garage is your only entrance.
Is the survey free in Antrim?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Antrim are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
Do I need permission for roller garage doors in Antrim?
It depends on the property. Swapping a garage door in the same opening is not usually a planning matter, but some estates have conditions on front elevations and listed buildings need consent. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
