Sectional garage doors with a pass door in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire
Our sectional door with a pass door service covers Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire: Aberdeen, Peterhead, Inverurie and Fraserburgh, plus the surrounding area, with each door made to measure after a free survey.
A sectional garage door with a pass door has a small hinged pedestrian door, often called a wicket door, built into its panels, so you can walk in and out without raising the whole door. It suits garages with no separate side door and wide doors that are slow or wasteful to open just to fetch something.

What should you know about sectional doors with a pass door in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Is a separate side door better?
If there is space for a side door, it is usually easier to use and keeps the main door simpler. Where there is not, a pass door is the neat answer.
Why choose a pass door?
Opening a whole garage door to grab a bike or bin lets out heat and takes time. A pass door gives quick, everyday access and keeps the main door shut.
Are there threshold limits?
A pass door sits within the bottom section, so there is a threshold to step over. Some ranges offer low-threshold designs that are easier to use, but it is never as level as a separate side door.
Which options can you choose?
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
How much does a sectional door with a pass door cost in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Guide price: from £3,995 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.
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.
