Roller garage doors in Edinburgh
Edinburgh is part of our Edinburgh & the Lothians coverage, and addresses in the city's postcode districts are covered in the same way as the rest of Edinburgh & the Lothians. Other towns nearby that we cover include Dalkeith, Musselburgh and Kirkcaldy.
A roller garage door is normally installed in a day, with the motor, remotes and safety edge set up and tested before handover.
Width, height and the headroom behind the lintel decide the door size; the survey in Edinburgh checks all three, plus where the motor can be powered.

What to check in Edinburgh before ordering
In Edinburgh, as elsewhere in Scotland, planning questions go to your planning authority (the local council, or a national park authority).
- Safety devices: Powered doors need force limiting or a safety edge and must be set up and tested at installation. We hand over the instructions and a record of the settings.
- Planning: Replacing a garage door is not usually a planning matter, but listed buildings and conditions on newer estates can restrict changes, so check if unsure.
- Power cut: Every powered door has a manual release so it can be opened by hand. If the garage is your only way into the house, ask about battery backup.

Frequently asked questions
Can a roller door replace my up-and-over door?
Yes. It fits the same opening, usually behind it on the inside, and gives you back the full width and the ceiling space.
What if the power fails?
Each door has a manual release inside the garage so it can be opened by hand. Battery backup is available if the garage is your only entrance.
Is the survey free in Edinburgh?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
