What should Aberdeen homeowners know about replacement sectional doors?
Why do people replace up-and-over doors?
Up-and-over doors swing out, so cars have to stop short of them; their springs and cables wear and become unsafe; they are rarely insulated; and many are dented or rusting. A sectional door fixes all four.
Can I keep the car in the garage that day?
No. The garage needs to be clear just inside the opening while we work. Everything else can stay.

How much does a replacement sectional door cost in Aberdeen?
Guide price: £2,095–£2,795 inc VAT. That covers the door, fitting, removal of a standard old door and VAT; the fixed price follows the free survey.
At the free survey we measure everything the manufacturer needs, check the brickwork, lintel and floor, and agree the door details with you.
Planning and regulations for Aberdeen homes
Planning questions for homes in Aberdeen go to Aberdeen City Council. Most garage door swaps need no permission, but conservation areas and listed buildings are the exceptions.
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 Aberdeen customers
How much does it cost to replace an up-and-over door with a sectional?
A typical single replacement, with the old door removed and a new insulated electric sectional fitted, is around £2,095–£2,795.
Is an up-and-over door dangerous when its springs go?
A failing up-and-over door can drop suddenly. If yours is slamming shut or feels heavy, stop using it and get it checked.
Do you cover Aberdeen?
Yes. We cover Aberdeen, including postcode districts AB10, AB11, AB12, AB15, AB16, AB23, AB24, AB25. Installation and visit dates depend on installer availability and are agreed when you book.
Will Aberdeen City 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 Aberdeen City Council before ordering.
Do you also cover towns near Aberdeen?
Yes. Close to Aberdeen we also cover Inverurie (14 mi).
