Ribbed sectional garage doors: what matters for Edinburgh garages
Fine ribs or large ribs?
Fine ribs give a busy, textured look that suits most homes and hides small marks well. Large ribs give a calmer, more architectural look with fewer lines, and suit modern houses and wide doors.
Do ribs affect strength?
The pressed ribs stiffen the steel skin slightly, which helps wide doors stay flat. Insulated cores do most of the stiffening on double-skin panels.
Options and upgrades for Edinburgh homes
- TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
- WindowsOptional inserts in one section.
What will a ribbed sectional door cost in Edinburgh?
Guide price: £1,695–£2,795 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
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.
Planning and regulations for Edinburgh homes
Planning questions for homes in Edinburgh go to City of Edinburgh 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 Edinburgh customers
Can ribbed doors have windows?
Yes, window inserts can be set into one section on most ranges.
Does a ribbed door show dents less?
The ribs and textured finish disguise small marks better than smooth flush panels.
Do you cover Edinburgh?
Yes. We cover Edinburgh, including postcode districts EH1, EH2, EH3, EH7, EH8, EH9. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will City of Edinburgh 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 City of Edinburgh Council before ordering.
