What should I know about security-rated roller garage doors in Kirkwall?
- Think about what the garage connects to, because an integral garage with a door into the house may need more protection than a detached store.
- Look at the lintel and the brickwork around the opening, as a rated door relies on sound masonry for its fixings.
- Count the remote fobs your household needs and plan where they'll live, as a lost fob should be recoded out of the system.
- Check with your insurer whether they ask for anything specific about garage doors before you choose a rating.

Rules that apply in Kirkwall
Powered door safety
Every powered door we fit is commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and handed over with a Declaration of Conformity and UKCA or CE marking, as the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 require.
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.
Security-rated roller garage doors in Kirkwall: questions
How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Kirkwall?
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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Kirkwall?
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 Kirkwall. 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 Kirkwall?
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 Kirkwall garage so you can compare.
How do surveys work in Kirkwall?
Surveys in Kirkwall are arranged individually because of travel. Any travel charge is confirmed in writing before the survey is booked, so you know the full cost before anyone comes out, and there is no obligation to go ahead with the quote.
Can my existing roller door be upgraded to a security rating?
No. A rating applies to a complete door model as the manufacturer had it tested, so adding locks or parts to an existing door doesn't make it rated. If you want a certificated door, it has to be a new door of a rated model. Some changes still help, such as recoding lost remotes on a visit that is priced and agreed before we come out.
Is a higher LPS 1175 rating always better for a house?
A higher rating means the door resisted a more serious attack for longer in testing, but that doesn't make it the right choice for every home. Think about what the garage connects to, what's stored inside and what your insurer asks for. We'll explain the ratings available on the models we can supply and show you each certificate, so you can decide.
