Patio & bifold door roller shutters in Greenock: questions
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.
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.
Do I need permission for patio & bifold door roller shutters in Greenock?
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.
Is the survey free in Greenock?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Greenock are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
