Single sectional garage doors in Angus and Dundee
Our single sectional door service covers Angus and Dundee: Dundee, Arbroath, Forfar and Carnoustie, plus the surrounding area, with each door made to measure after a free survey.
A single sectional garage door covers a one-car opening, usually around 2.1 to 2.6 metres wide, with four or so horizontal panels that lift up and back along tracks to sit under the ceiling. It is the most common replacement for an old up-and-over door on UK homes, and it gives back the space a canopy door swings into.

How much does a single sectional door cost in Angus and Dundee?
Guide price: £1,695–£3,195 inc VAT. The figure includes VAT, fitting and taking away a standard old door. Your survey turns it into a fixed price.
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 Angus and Dundee?
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 Angus and Dundee include Angus Council and Dundee City Council.

Questions about single sectional garage doors in Angus and Dundee
Will I lose headroom inside the garage?
The door parks under the ceiling, so the clear height inside is reduced by the parked door and tracks. On low ceilings a low-headroom track keeps the door tighter to the ceiling.
Can I have a manual door and add a motor later?
Usually, yes, as long as the door is suitable for powered operation and is set up and checked to the powered-door safety standard when the motor goes on.

Do I need planning permission in Angus and Dundee?
