Generally, most sectional domestic garage doors require 90mm on each side for installation and between 100 and 210mm of headroom above the top panel of the door for the headroom.
Unlike sectional doors, roller doors don’t require the installation of tracks along with your garage ceiling, making them the perfect door if you’re worried about space.
