Single sectional garage doors: what matters for Kirkcaldy garages
What are the usual sizes?
Common UK openings are about 7 by 7 feet (2134 by 2134 mm), 7 feet 6 by 7 feet, and 8 by 7 feet (2438 by 2134 mm), but older and newer garages vary. The door is made to your measured opening.
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.

Do you need permission in Kirkcaldy?
Kirkcaldy falls under Fife 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 Kirkcaldy customers
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.
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.
Do you cover Kirkcaldy?
Yes. We cover Kirkcaldy, including postcode districts KY1, KY2. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Fife 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 Fife Council before ordering.
Do you also cover towns near Kirkcaldy?
Yes. Close to Kirkcaldy we also cover Glenrothes (5 mi), Edinburgh (11 mi), Dunfermline (12 mi) and Musselburgh (13 mi).
