Large and oversized sectional garage doors: what matters for Peebles garages
Can large doors be insulated and glazed?
Yes. Most large doors use insulated panels, and window rows or vision panels can be added to bring light into a long garage.
When is a door oversized?
Anything taller than about 2.3 metres or wider than a typical double, roughly 5 metres, usually moves into larger spring and track specifications. Motorhome garages often need heights of 3 metres or more.

- Heavier springsSpring sets sized to the larger door weight.

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 Peebles?
Planning questions for homes in Peebles go to Scottish Borders Council. Most garage door swaps need no permission, but conservation areas and listed buildings are the exceptions.
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.

Questions from Peebles customers
Can a sectional door go in an oak barn?
Usually. The fixing method is matched to the frame, and allowance is made for timber movement.
Will a large door need a special motor?
It needs an operator rated for its size and weight, which may be a heavier rail operator or a shaft-mounted unit.

Yes. We cover Peebles, including postcode districts EH45. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Do I need planning permission for a new garage door in Peebles?
