Key questions about single sectional doors in Livingston
Can you widen the drive-through width?
Many single sectional doors are fitted behind the opening, which can give a slightly wider clear opening than the old frame allowed. The survey shows what clear width you will end up with.
How long does the job take?
Swapping a single door is normally a one-day job: the old door comes out, the opening is prepared, and the new door is fitted, balanced, tested and handed over.

Planning and regulations for Livingston homes
Livingston falls under West Lothian Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
For most Scottish homes a replacement garage door needs no planning application. Listed buildings and conservation areas are the cases to check with the council first.

Questions from Livingston customers
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 a sectional door fit my existing opening?
In most cases, yes. We check headroom above the opening, side room for the tracks and the depth of the garage at survey.
Which parts of Livingston do you cover?
We cover Livingston across postcode districts EH52, EH53, EH54, along with nearby Bathgate and Edinburgh. Dates are agreed when you book.
Will West Lothian 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 West Lothian Council before ordering.
