Planning and regulations for St Andrews homes
St Andrews falls under Fife 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.
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.
