What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- The old up-and-over panel, its springs or counterweights, tracks and arms are removed and taken away as part of the price.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.

Questions about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire
How do I book a survey in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Start with the guide price tool or the form on this page. We then contact you to arrange a free survey for a new door, replacement or conversion, and confirm the date in writing.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
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.
Are guide prices the same across Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire?
Yes. The guide prices are the same in every town in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode.
Can you keep my existing up-and-over frame?
Sometimes. If the frame is sound, square and securely fixed, it can stay as a finish around the opening and the roller door is fitted to suit it. If it's rotten, damaged or out of square, we take it out and prepare the opening for the new door. The survey decides which applies to your garage.
Does a roller door need more headroom than an up-and-over?
A roller door needs headroom above the opening for its box, while an up-and-over needs space inside the garage for its tracks and for the panel when it's open. Domestic roller boxes are commonly around 205 to 300 mm or more, depending on door height and lath size. If there isn't room behind the lintel, other box positions are possible.
