What should you know about matching side doors in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Why match the side door?
An old timber side door next to a new sectional door looks tired. A matched side door in the same rib pattern, woodgrain or colour pulls the whole garage together.
How secure is it?
Most matching side doors are steel with multi-point or robust locking. The specification is shown on your quote.
Inward or outward opening?
Side doors can usually be hung to open in or out, left or right hand, to suit paths and the space inside.
Which options can you choose?
- Matched colourSame colour or woodgrain.
- Glazed top panelOptional on some ranges.
- LockingRobust or multi-point locks.
- Matched panel designRibs, flush or cassette to match.
How much does a matching side door cost in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Guide price: £995–£1,895 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
The survey is free and there is no obligation. We measure width, height, headroom, side room and depth, and look at power for an operator.
What rules apply in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
In Scotland, works that do not materially change the outside appearance of a house are not usually development, so a like-for-like garage door is normally fine. The householder permitted development class for external alterations does not apply in conservation areas, so a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed building consent is a separate requirement. Your council planning team can confirm.
Planning authorities in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire include Aberdeen City Council and Aberdeenshire Council.
