Cassette and Georgian sectional garage doors: what matters for Stornoway garages
How many cassettes will I get?

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.

Guide price for a cassette sectional door in Stornoway
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.
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 Stornoway?
Stornoway falls under Comhairle nan Eilean Siar for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
In Scotland a door that does not materially change the look of the house is not usually development. A visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent.

Questions from Stornoway customers

Is a cassette door suitable for a listed building or conservation area?
It can be a sympathetic choice, but consent may still be needed. Check with the local planning authority before ordering.
Do you cover Stornoway?

Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Stornoway?
Usually not for a like-for-like door. In Scotland a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent. If in doubt, check with Comhairle nan Eilean Siar.
