We upgraded our ceiling to 2740mm during sales, but no one mentioned internal doors or the garage. It only came to mind when I read this forum. Thanks for feedback on your garage size. Anytime. Which stage are you at? viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 12Nov 19, 2017 8:44 pm Doulton777 sabrelli Thank you so much this topic! I totally forgot about increasing my garage door height!!!! ive already started building and hoping its not too late! If you upgraded your ceilings then they would asked you if you wanted your doors upgraded. If you said yes I believe that includes the garage internal door. That’s what we did and our garage door is 2300 I think. Ceiling height for ground floor is 2700. But definitely make sure it easy. Cos with builders you never know. my 2.7m ceilings were an upgrade and i wasnt asked if i wanted to raise internal doors or garage door. with my garage, ive got a 510mm drop from the kitchen so the standard garage height looks out of whack - see below! im surprised i didnt pick it up when going thru the plans!

Do you know what your internal doors are now? viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 14Nov 19, 2017 9:21 pm Doulton777 I’m surprised they didn’t pick it up. Gee it does look out of whack. Do you know what your internal doors are now? viewtopic.php?t=86597 2.1m for all internal doors, with 2.3 for alfresco stacker. Sent an email to the builder to see if they can increase garage so its in line with top of entry door so hopefully shouldnt be a problem Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 16Nov 19, 2017 9:24 pm Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 17Nov 19, 2017 9:27 pm It doesn’t look too bad. I thought it would be way higher. Maybe they adjusted it? viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 18Nov 19, 2017 9:29 pm I don’t like your chances of them changing it now. I would be very surprised as that’s a structural change. viewtopic.php?t=86597 Re: 2.7m ceiling height and garage door height... thoughts.. 19Nov 19, 2017 9:35 pm Doulton777 I don’t like your chances of them changing it now. I would be very surprised as that’s a structural change. viewtopic.php?t=86597 I think i might be ok as they havent installed the t-bar lintel. Since its a parapet wall, im assuming all they need to do is reduce a few layers of brickwork and to order a larger roller door. Thank you @ashington Homes for your reply!
