Anthracite and RAL coloured sectional garage doors in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire
Looking for a coloured sectional door in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire? We cover Glasgow, Bearsden, Clydebank and Vale of Leven and the rest of the area, measuring, supplying and fitting each door.
Coloured sectional garage doors are sectional doors finished in a colour other than the standard white, from the popular anthracite grey (RAL 7016) to black, greens, blues and creams, so the door can match windows, front doors and cladding. Most ranges offer a short list of preferred colours and a wide RAL palette to order.

What should you know about coloured sectional doors in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
Preferred colours or RAL to order?
Preferred colours are held by the manufacturer, so they cost less and arrive sooner. RAL colours to order widen the choice but can add cost and lead time.
Will a dark colour fade or move?
All exterior coatings weather. Dark colours absorb more heat, and some manufacturers limit dark colours on certain sizes or recommend specific panel types for sunny elevations. We check the rules for your door.
How do I match my windows?
Ask your window installer for the RAL or foil reference, or bring a sample to the survey. Colour on screen is never a safe guide.
Which options can you choose?
- Two-sided colourOutside colour on both faces on some ranges.
- Heritage coloursGreens, blues and creams.
- Black and dark greysRAL 9005 and similar.
- Anthracite RAL 7016The classic dark grey.
How much does a coloured sectional door cost in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?

The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
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.
