What should I know about low-headroom roller garage doors in Peebles?
- Think about how a visible face-fitted box would look on the front of your home before choosing that position.
- Measure from the underside of the lintel to the ceiling or lowest obstruction inside, because that figure decides where the box can go.
- Check the height of what you park, including roof bars or a roof box, before choosing to fit the box under the lintel.
- Look for pipes, cables, lights or joists just above the opening, as moving one may free up room for the box behind the lintel.

Low-headroom roller garage doors in Peebles: questions
Can you remove my old garage door in Peebles?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Peebles address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.
Do you charge more for Peebles than other towns in the Scottish Borders?
No. Guide prices are the same for Peebles as for anywhere else we cover in the Scottish Borders. 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Peebles?
Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Peebles. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Peebles?
That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Peebles garage so you can compare.
Can I move pipes or a light to make room for the box?
Sometimes that's the simplest answer. If a pipe, cable or light fitting sits just where the box needs to go, moving it may let the box go behind the lintel in the usual way. Any electrical changes should be made by a qualified electrician. We'll point out obstructions at survey and include any work we're doing in the written quote.
Is an insulated door possible with low headroom?
Often, yes. Insulated laths make a larger roll than single-skin laths of the same height, so the box is bigger. If that box won't fit behind the lintel, it can go under the lintel or in front of the wall. We'll show you the clear height you'd keep with each option, so you can decide whether insulation is worth the trade-off.
