Questions about patio & bifold door roller shutters in Kirkby
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.
Can the headbox be hidden?
On new extensions it can be built into the roof edge or behind a fascia. On existing houses it is fitted neatly under the lintel and colour-matched.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Kirkby?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
Is the survey free in Kirkby?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
