Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Stranraer: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Stranraer?
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.
Can you remove my old garage door in Stranraer?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Stranraer 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 Stranraer?
Possibly. The door and visit guide prices are the same as elsewhere, but travel to Stranraer is priced individually and shown in writing before you agree to anything, so there are no surprises on the day.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Stranraer?
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 Stranraer. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
Will I lose height in the opening with a roller door?
Not usually, if the box can sit behind the lintel inside the garage, which is the normal position. If there's too little headroom inside, the box can go under the lintel, which does reduce the clear opening height, or be face-fixed on the front of the wall. We measure this at the survey and tell you before you commit.
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.
