Good to know

  • A 3.00 m clear door height does not mean every motorhome or high-roof vehicle fits — check length, width, height, mirrors and roof equipment before enquiring.
  • The anti-condensation felt is not insulation.
  • Electrical supply and connection are not included; the door operator itself is.

Planning and building regulations

At its highest point this building is about 4.00 m. In England, an outbuilding within 2 m of a boundary must be no taller than 2.5 m to count as permitted development, so to rely on permitted development it would need to stand more than 2 m from every boundary. Other conditions apply, and the rules differ in Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland.
