Choosing a replacement sectional door for a home in East Kilbride
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.
What happens to the old door?
We remove it, including its springs and frame, and take it away for disposal or recycling where quoted.

What rules apply in East Kilbride?
East Kilbride falls under South Lanarkshire Council for planning and building control, which is the place to check if your home is listed or in a conservation area.
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 East Kilbride customers
Can the new door be wider than the old one?
Fitting behind the opening often gives more clear width than the old frame did, but the brick opening itself sets the limit.
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 I need planning permission for a new garage door in East Kilbride?
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, check with South Lanarkshire Council.
