What should Edinburgh homeowners know about glazed sectional doors?
What about privacy?
Frosted, obscured or tinted glazing infills keep the light while hiding what is inside. On full-vision doors this is the usual choice for homes.
Window inserts or full vision?
Window inserts are the simple choice: a row of glazed panels in one section of an otherwise solid door. A full-vision door is a different construction, an aluminium frame with glazing throughout, which lets in far more light and makes a design statement.
Options and upgrades for Edinburgh homes

- Full-vision aluminiumGlazed throughout in an aluminium frame.
- Frame coloursBlack, anthracite, silver and RAL colours.

How much does a glazed sectional door cost in Edinburgh?
Guide price: £5,995–£7,995 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
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 Edinburgh?
The planning authority for Edinburgh is City of Edinburgh Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
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 Edinburgh customers
