What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Musselburgh?
- With no swing-out panel, you can park closer to the garage and still open the door all the way.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- 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.

Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Musselburgh: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Musselburgh?
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 Musselburgh?
Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Musselburgh 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 Musselburgh than other towns in Edinburgh and the Lothians?
No. Guide prices are the same for Musselburgh as for anywhere else we cover in Edinburgh and the Lothians. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.
What do you check at a survey in EH21?
At a survey in EH21 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.
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.
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.
