Planning and regulations for Edinburgh homes
The planning authority for Edinburgh is City of Edinburgh Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
For most Scottish homes a replacement garage door needs no planning application. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the cases to check with the council first.

Questions from Edinburgh customers
What colour garage door adds most kerb appeal?
The one that matches your windows and front door. Anthracite grey and white are the most common choices.
Can I paint my sectional door later?
Repainting a factory-finished door can affect the warranty and is rarely as durable. It is better to order the colour you want.
Which parts of Edinburgh do you cover?
We cover Edinburgh across postcode districts EH1, EH2, EH3, EH7, EH8, EH9, along with nearby Musselburgh, Bonnyrigg and Livingston. Dates are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Edinburgh?
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 City of Edinburgh Council.
