What should you know about sectional doors with a pass door in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde?
Can every door have one?
Pass doors are only offered on certain ranges, widths and designs, and the door must be wide enough to accommodate the pass door with sections either side.
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.
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?
- Lock and handleMatched to the door.
- Hinge sideLeft or right hand.
- Safety interlockStops the door running when the pass door is open.
- Low thresholdOn selected ranges.
How much does a sectional door with a pass door cost in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde?
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.

What rules apply in Renfrewshire and Inverclyde?
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 Renfrewshire and Inverclyde include East Renfrewshire Council, Inverclyde Council and Renfrewshire Council.
