What should Edinburgh homeowners know about sectional doors with a pass door?
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.
Does it affect the operator?
Yes. The operator is linked to a safety switch so the main door cannot move while the pass door is open.
What can you choose for your Edinburgh garage?
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.

Planning and regulations for Edinburgh homes
The planning authority for Edinburgh is City of Edinburgh Council. A replacement garage door is usually outside planning control, but it is worth a quick check where conditions apply.
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.
