Sectional garage doors with a pass door in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire
We supply and fit sectional doors with a pass door across Glasgow and Dunbartonshire, including Glasgow, Bearsden, Clydebank and Vale of Leven, with a free survey and a fixed written price for every door.
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 Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
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.
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.
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.
Which options can you choose?
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
How much does a sectional door with a pass door cost in Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
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 Glasgow and Dunbartonshire?
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 Glasgow and Dunbartonshire include East Dunbartonshire Council, Glasgow City Council and West Dunbartonshire Council.
