Commercial sectional doors for workshops and units: what matters for Stornoway garages
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.

What will a commercial sectional door cost in Stornoway?
Guide price: from £3,500 + VAT. Prices include VAT and fitting. Building work to the opening or a new electrical circuit would be quoted separately.
Our free survey checks the opening, headroom above it, room either side for the tracks, garage depth and where an operator will be powered from.
Do you need permission in Stornoway?
If your property in Stornoway is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Comhairle nan Eilean Siar is the authority to check with before ordering.
In Scotland a door that does not materially change the look of the house is not usually development. A visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent.
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.

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 Stornoway?
We cover Stornoway by arrangement. Because of the distance, we confirm availability and any travel cost before you book, and the cost is shown separately on your quote.
Will Comhairle nan Eilean Siar 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 Comhairle nan Eilean Siar before ordering.
