What to check in Stevenage before ordering
In Stevenage, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- 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.
- 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.
- 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.

Can a roller door replace my up-and-over door?

Do I need permission for roller garage doors in Stevenage?
Possibly. 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. We recommend checking with your local council first.
