Rules that apply in Johnstone
As a Scottish town, Johnstone follows the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Scottish permitted development rules.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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
How much is an electric roller garage door?
A single insulated electric roller door is usually £1,395–£2,195 including VAT, supplied and fitted. Double doors are typically £2,195–£3,495, and removing and disposing of an old up-and-over door is usually £95–£195 extra.
Are roller garage doors insulated?
The doors we recommend use foam-filled aluminium laths, which reduce heat loss and noise compared with a single-skin steel up-and-over door.

Possibly. Swapping a garage door in the same opening is not usually a planning matter, but some estates have conditions on front elevations and listed buildings need consent. We recommend checking with your council first.
