What should you know about cassette sectional doors in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
How many cassettes will I get?
The number of cassettes per row depends on the door width and the range. The manufacturer sets the layout so cassettes stay well proportioned.
Do cassette panels collect dirt?
The recesses can hold dust and leaves, so an occasional wash keeps them crisp.
Can a cassette door be insulated and electric?
Yes. Cassette panels are usually double-skin and insulated, and the door can be motorised like any other sectional door.
Which options can you choose?
- Heritage coloursMany RAL colours to order.
- Cassette layoutGrid set by the manufacturer for the width.
- Woodgrain textureAdds a painted-timber feel.
- Window cassettesGlazed inserts in the top row on some ranges.
How much does a cassette sectional door cost in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
Guide price: £2,195–£2,895 inc VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
What rules apply in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
In Scotland, works that do not materially change the outside appearance of a house are not usually development, so a like-for-like garage door is normally fine. The householder permitted development class for external alterations does not apply in conservation areas, so a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed building consent is a separate requirement. Your council planning team can confirm.
Planning authorities in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire include East Dunbartonshire Council, Glasgow City Council and West Dunbartonshire Council.
