Garage Door Price Examples

Every day we get asked the same question – Roughly how much is a standard garage door installed? What is standard though in 2025?

With advances in garage door types, materials, construction methods and operating mechanisms over the last 39 years you can have a garage door providing a lot more than just a basic steel panel in a timber frame. The choice of garage doors now is enormous in the UK, with insulated doors, vertically rising doors, horizontally sliding doors, security doors and even garage doors with smaller doors built in for easy pedestrian access.

Showing below are 11 examples to show how a standard single garage opening size can produce 11 very different 'drive through' measurements and 10 very different prices.
If you want to take your own garage opening measurements and get an accurate price from us, simply email any images or drawings of your door and garage and sizing details directly to enquiries@thegaragedoorcentre.co.uk.   Or simply call us and we can provide prices within minutes based on some basic details.

 
 

How Prices Below are Calculated:

✔ Examples use the most common UK garage structural opening size of 2290mm wide (approx. 7’6”) x 2250mm high (approx. 7’4 3/4”).
✔ The price assumes there is sufficient internal headroom and sideroom and a level floor.
✔ Price includes removing any existing door, gear and framework and disposing from site correctly and with waste disposal licence.
✔ Survey included to determine the best size and specification to suit.
✔ Professional installation of door, mechanism and electric motor where applicable.
✔ Full warranty from us and manufacturers guarantee 100% enabled.

We have assumed average times on site and no major 'making good' or trimming work.

We cover the Midlands and Home Counties for installation services.
