What should I know about double and wide roller garage doors in Alloa?

Check whether the floor slopes or dips across the opening, as a wide bottom rail needs to sit evenly when closed.
Ask whether pier removal needs a building warrant before planning to turn two openings into one.
Make sure there's a clear route from the road to the garage, because a curtain for a wide opening is long and awkward to carry.
Measure the width of your opening at the top, middle and bottom, and use the narrowest figure for your guide price.

Rules that apply in Alloa

Structural work

Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland. Listed building consent applies to listed buildings, and conservation-area controls, planning conditions or title conditions can restrict changes to how a garage looks, so check before ordering.

Double and wide roller garage doors in Alloa: questions

Is the survey in Alloa really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Alloa?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Alloa?

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland, and widening the opening needs a building warrant. If you live in a listed building, a conservation area or on an estate with covenants or planning conditions, check before ordering.

Do you charge more for Alloa than other towns in Stirling, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Alloa as for anywhere else we cover in Stirling, Falkirk and Clackmannanshire. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Will a roller door give me more width than my double up-and-over door?

Possibly a little. An up-and-over door has a frame and swing-out arms at the sides, and a roller door doesn't, so converting can improve the clear width slightly. The guide rails still need some side room at each end. We measure the clear width you'd get at survey, so you know before ordering.

Do I need permission to turn two garage openings into one?

Removing a pier and fitting a longer lintel is structural work, and it may need a building warrant. Whether planning permission is needed depends on your property, so check with your local authority, especially for listed buildings or homes in a conservation area. Our guide to planning and building regulations covers the questions to ask.
