Sectional garage door installation: what matters for Kirkcaldy garages
What happens on fitting day?
The old door is taken out, the opening is prepared, the frame and vertical tracks go in, the horizontal tracks are hung from the ceiling, the panels are assembled section by section, and the springs are fitted and set. The operator is fitted last, then everything is tested.
What is checked at survey?
We measure the opening width and height, headroom above the opening, side room either side, the depth of the garage, and the condition of the brickwork, lintel and floor. We also look at power for an operator and anything that could get in the way of the tracks.

Do you need permission in Kirkcaldy?
If your property in Kirkcaldy is listed, in a conservation area or on an estate with planning conditions, Fife Council is the authority to check with before ordering.
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.
Scotland has no Part P, but the socket or spur for an operator should be installed and certified to BS 7671.

Questions from Kirkcaldy customers
Do I need to clear the garage?
Please clear the area just inside the opening and along both side walls and the ceiling for the length of the tracks.

Most domestic doors are fitted in one day once the door has been made. The quote gives the expected lead time for manufacture.
