- 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.

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.
