Patio & bifold door roller shutters in Highlands & Islands: questions
Will a shutter keep my extension cooler?
Yes, an external shutter stops sun reaching the glass, which is far more effective at reducing heat than an internal blind.
How wide can one patio shutter be?
Around 3,000 mm in a standard foam-filled lath, and wider with stronger extruded profiles. We confirm the maximum for your opening at survey.
Is the survey free in Highlands & Islands?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Highlands & Islands are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Highlands & Islands?
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.
