Frequently asked questions
Is an insulated garage door worth it?
If the garage is attached to the house, sits under a room, or is used as a workspace, the warmer and quieter space is usually worth the difference.
Do roller shutters really insulate?
Insulated shutters reduce heat loss when they are closed, mainly at night, and stop solar heat in summer. They complement good windows rather than replace them.
Do I need permission for insulated roller shutters & doors in Stranraer?
It depends on the property. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. Check with your council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
