Key questions about double sectional doors in Inverness
What sizes are common in the UK?
Many older double garages have openings of about 14 feet by 7 feet (roughly 4267 by 2134 mm) or 16 feet by 7 feet (about 4877 by 2134 mm). New builds vary, which is why every door is made to the measured opening rather than to a stock size.
Does a wider door need different springs?
Yes. A double door is far heavier than a single, so it runs on a larger spring set, usually torsion springs on a longer shaft, and heavier-gauge tracks and cables. These are sized to the exact door weight by the manufacturer.
Which options are available in Inverness?
- Wicket doorIntegrated pedestrian door on selected ranges.
- Any designRibbed, large rib, flush, cassette, woodgrain and glazed options.
- Heavier operatorOperator rated for the door area and weight.

At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
Do you need permission in Inverness?
Planning questions for homes in Inverness go to Highland Council. Most garage door swaps need no permission, but conservation areas and listed buildings are the exceptions.
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.

Questions from Inverness customers
How much is a double sectional garage door?
A double insulated sectional door, supplied and fitted with an electric operator, is typically around £3,295–£4,995, depending on width, finish and glazing.
Is a double sectional door heavy to open by hand?
When it is correctly balanced, the springs carry most of the weight. Even so, most people choose electric operation on a double.
Do you cover Inverness?
We cover Inverness 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 Highland 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 Highland Council before ordering.
Which other places do you cover by arrangement?
In the Highlands and Islands we also cover Nairn and Alness by arrangement, with any travel cost shown on the quote.
