What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Bathgate?
- Electric conversions are commissioned with force testing to BS EN 12453 and a Declaration of Conformity at handover.
- If headroom behind the lintel is short, the roller box can go under the lintel or be face-fixed on the wall.
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.
- Clear width can improve slightly after a conversion, because there are no swing-out arms at the sides of the opening.

Rules that apply in Bathgate
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 Bathgate: questions
Is the survey in Bathgate 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 you charge more for Bathgate than other towns in Edinburgh and the Lothians?

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Bathgate?
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 Bathgate. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
Do I need planning permission to change to a roller door?
Changing the door on an existing garage opening usually doesn't need planning permission, but conservation areas, listed buildings, flats, and estates with planning conditions or covenants can be different. If any of those apply, check with your council or management company before you book. Our guide on planning permission and building regulations explains the questions to ask.
