What should you know about ribbed sectional doors in Lanarkshire?
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.
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.
What colours are available?
Ribbed doors come in standard colours such as white and anthracite grey on most ranges, with many RAL colours to order.
Which options can you choose?
- Large rib (L-rib)One wide rib per section.
- Fine rib (M-rib)Several ribs per section.
- WindowsOptional inserts in one section.
- TexturesStucco, woodgrain or smooth.

What rules apply in Lanarkshire?
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 Lanarkshire include North Lanarkshire Council and South Lanarkshire Council.
