Key questions about commercial sectional doors in Dundee
How is it different from a domestic door?
Commercial doors open more often and are often bigger, so they use springs rated for higher cycle counts, heavier hardware and operators built for frequent use. The safety requirements for powered doors at work also apply.
What size of premises do you cover?
This page covers workshops, small units, garages for vans and plant, and farm buildings. For large loading bays with dock levellers and shelters, a specialist industrial installer is the right route.

Planning and regulations for Dundee homes
Dundee falls under Dundee City Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
Scottish rules normally allow a like-for-like garage door without permission. Conservation areas are stricter because the householder permitted development class for external alterations does not apply there.
Electrical work for an operator in Scotland should meet BS 7671 and be certified by a competent electrician; a warrant is not normally needed.
At work, powered doors must also be maintained under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Questions from Dundee customers
How much is a commercial sectional door?
Commercial doors are priced on survey. As a guide, a workshop-sized insulated door with an operator starts from £3,500 plus VAT.
Do you fit loading bay equipment?
No. We fit sectional doors to workshops and small units. Dock levellers, shelters and full loading bays need a specialist industrial door company.
Do you cover Dundee?
Yes. We cover Dundee, including postcode districts DD1, DD2, DD3, DD4, DD5. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Dundee?
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 Dundee City Council.

Yes. Close to Dundee we also cover Carnoustie (11 mi), St Andrews (11 mi) and Forfar (12 mi).
