What should I know about up-and-over to roller door conversion in Castlemilk?
- An up-and-over frame is kept only if it is sound and square; otherwise it comes out and the opening is prepared.
- We check the lintel and reveals at the survey, and price a new lintel or building out the reveals before you agree.
- 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.

Up-and-over to roller door conversion in Castlemilk: questions
Do I need permission for a new roller garage door in Castlemilk?
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 I get a price for Castlemilk without anyone visiting?
Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.
Do you charge more for Castlemilk than other towns in Greater Glasgow?
No. Guide prices are the same for Castlemilk as for anywhere else we cover in Greater Glasgow. 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.
Can I message you a photo of my garage in Castlemilk?
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 Castlemilk. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.
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.
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.
