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

Check the agreed position of the laths in your written quote, and again on fitting day before the installer finishes.
Think about privacy, because vision laths can let people glimpse what's inside when the garage light is on after dark.
Decide whether the garage needs daylight, airflow or both, since vision and vent laths do different jobs.
Plan vision or vent laths into your order from the start, because they're built into the curtain when the door is made.

How does it work in Slough?

When you're happy with the quote and accept it, we put the fitting date in writing, based on when an installer is available. The door, including its special laths, is only ordered after that acceptance.

Rules that apply in Slough

Structural work

Widening the opening, removing a central pier or fitting a new lintel is structural work that needs Building Regulations approval from building control before it starts.

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Electrical work must meet BS 7671, and in England some domestic electrical work is notifiable under Part P, so it is done by a registered competent person or signed off by building control.

Roller garage doors with vision and vent laths in Slough: questions

How much do roller garage doors with vision and vent laths cost in Slough?

Our guide price for roller garage doors with vision and vent laths is from £1,040 inc VAT. The figure for your garage depends on the opening size, the door specification and any extras, and is confirmed in a written quote after a free survey. The guide prices are the same in Slough as elsewhere we cover.

Is an electric roller door worth it for a garage in Slough?

That depends on how often you use the garage. An electric door opens from the car with a remote and has safety devices fitted, while a manual door costs less and suits occasional use. We price both for your Slough garage so you can compare.

Do you charge more for Slough than other towns in Berkshire?

No. Guide prices are the same for Slough as for anywhere else we cover in Berkshire. The written quote reflects your opening and the door you choose, not your postcode, apart from islands and remote areas where any travel cost is shown in advance.

Is the survey in Slough really free?

Yes. For a new door, a replacement or a conversion, the survey is free and there is no obligation to go ahead. We measure the opening, check the lintel, headroom, side room and power, and send a written quote afterwards.

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.

Can I have vision laths on an electric roller door?

Yes. Vision and vent laths are part of the curtain, so they coil onto the barrel and run in the guides like the rest of the laths, whether the door is manual or electric. An electric door with vision laths is commissioned in the usual way, with the limits set and the safety edge or photocells tested.
