What should I know about roller garage doors with vision and vent laths in Aberdeen?

Consider the height you want the laths at, for example level with a workbench or higher up to keep the view in limited.
Ask whether vision or vent laths are covered by the certificate if you're choosing a security-rated door model.
Keep anything that must stay completely dry away from vent laths, as some moisture may get in during wet, windy weather.
Decide whether the garage needs daylight, airflow or both, since vision and vent laths do different jobs.

Rules that apply in Aberdeen

Planning

Replacing a garage door is not usually development that needs planning permission in Scotland. Listed building consent applies to listed buildings, and conservation-area controls, planning conditions or title conditions can restrict changes to how a garage looks, so check before ordering.

Structural work

Structural alterations, such as widening the opening or fitting a new lintel, need a building warrant from the local authority before work starts.

What do you check at a survey in AB11?

At a survey in AB11 we measure the width and height of the opening, the headroom above it for the roller box, the side room for the guide rails and the floor level. We also look at the lintel and where power can come from for an electric door.

How do I clean vision laths?

Clean them gently, following the manufacturer's care guidance that comes with the door, and avoid abrasive cleaners or scourers that could scratch the see-through sections. Do it with the door closed and, on an electric door, make sure no one operates it while you're cleaning. Keep the guide rails clear of debris at the same time.

Will people be able to see into my garage through vision laths?

Possibly, especially at night when the garage light is on. If privacy matters, think about the height of the laths and what's stored nearby. Placing them higher in the curtain, or having fewer of them, can help. We'll talk through the position at survey so you can balance daylight against privacy for your garage.
