What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Aberdeen?
- Electric conversions are commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and a Declaration of Conformity at handover.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.

Rules that apply in Aberdeen
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.
Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Aberdeen: questions
Is the survey in Aberdeen 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.
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Aberdeen?
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.
How much does up-and-over to roller door conversion cost in Aberdeen?
Our guide price for up-and-over to roller door conversion is from £1,195 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Aberdeen as elsewhere we cover.
Do you cover Aberdeen?
Yes. Aberdeen is part of the area we cover in Aberdeen and Aberdeenshire, including AB11, AB25 and AB10. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.
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.
