At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.

What rules apply in Motherwell?

The planning authority for Motherwell is North Lanarkshire 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.

Questions from Motherwell customers

Will a side sectional fit if I have a side door?

It depends where the side door is. The parking wall needs to be clear, so a side door on that wall can stop it fitting.

How much is a side sectional garage door?

As a guide, a side sectional door supplied and fitted is from £3,495, depending on size, finish and whether it is electric.

Do you cover Motherwell?

Yes. We cover Motherwell, including postcode districts ML1, ML3, ML4. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.

Will North Lanarkshire Council need to approve my new garage door?

Usually not for a like-for-like door. In Scotland a visibly different door in a conservation area is likely to need permission, and listed buildings need consent. If in doubt, ask North Lanarkshire Council before ordering.

Do you also cover towns near Motherwell?

Yes. Close to Motherwell we also cover Bellshill (2 mi), Hamilton (2 mi), Wishaw (3 mi) and Blantyre (4 mi).
