Fitting patio & bifold door roller shutters in York
York is part of our North Yorkshire coverage, and addresses in the YO1 postcode district are covered in the same way as the rest of North Yorkshire. We also cover Selby, Harrogate and Goole, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.
Door shutters in York can run from the same remote or app as window shutters, so the whole ground floor closes together.
Because a door shutter can cover an escape route, each one we fit in York has an inside control that works without a key, plus a manual override or battery backup.

Frequently asked questions
Can you fit a shutter over bifold doors?
Yes. The shutter runs outside the folding doors in its own guides, so it does not interfere with them. Very wide bifolds are often split into two shutters on a centre post.
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.
