Which colours suit a cassette door?
White is the classic choice, with cream, heritage greens, blues and woodgrain effects popular on period homes.

How much does a cassette sectional door cost in the Highlands and Islands?
Guide price: £2,195–£2,895 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.
What rules apply in the Highlands and Islands?
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 the Highlands and Islands include Argyll and Bute Council, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar, Highland Council, Orkney Islands Council and Shetland Islands Council.
