Rules that apply in Scottish Borders
Across Scottish Borders, planning follows the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997 and the Scottish permitted development rules.
- 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.
- 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.

Roller garage doors in Scottish Borders: 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.
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.
Is the survey free in Scottish Borders?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do I need permission for roller garage doors in Scottish Borders?
It depends on the property. 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. Check with your council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
