Key questions about commercial sectional doors in Edinburgh
Which operator suits a commercial door?
Shaft-mounted operators are common on commercial sectional doors because they handle heavier doors and higher use. Three-phase power is typical, though single-phase versions exist.
Can a commercial door be insulated?
Yes. Insulated panels are standard on most commercial sectional doors and help heated workshops keep costs down.

Guide price for a commercial sectional door in Edinburgh
Guide price: from £3,500 + VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
Planning and regulations for Edinburgh homes
Planning questions for homes in Edinburgh go to City of Edinburgh Council. Most garage door swaps need no permission, but conservation areas and listed buildings are the exceptions.
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.
Scotland has no Part P, but the socket or spur for an operator should be installed and certified to BS 7671.
At work, powered doors must also be maintained under the Workplace (Health, Safety and Welfare) Regulations 1992 and PUWER 1998.

Questions from Edinburgh customers
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.
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 cover Edinburgh?
Yes. We cover Edinburgh, including postcode districts EH1, EH2, EH3, EH7, EH8, EH9. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will City of Edinburgh Council need to approve my new garage door?
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, ask City of Edinburgh Council before ordering.
Do you also cover towns near Edinburgh?
Yes. Close to Edinburgh we also cover Musselburgh (6 mi), Bonnyrigg (6 mi) and Livingston (13 mi).
