Sunlight, glass and orientation in Banchory
Sun angles matter for big glazed doors. Around Banchory, midday sun reaches about 56° in summer and drops to about 10° in winter. That low winter sun is free heat through south-facing glass; high summer sun is easier to shade with a roof overhang, and solar-control glass helps where there is none.

Every job in the AB31 district follows the same steps: price online, survey, written quote, made-to-measure manufacture and fitting, to the Scottish building standards.
Approvals in Scotland
In Scotland, replacing a door like for like in a house does not usually need a building warrant, but the new door must still meet the Scottish building standards for energy and safety. Forming or widening an opening is different: that needs a building warrant from the council before work starts.
