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

Plan vision or vent laths into your order from the start, because they're built into the curtain when the door is made.
Keep anything that must stay completely dry away from vent laths, as some moisture may get in during wet, windy weather.
Weigh up insulation if you're choosing insulated laths, as vent laths let air through and vision laths hold less heat.
Ask whether vision or vent laths are covered by the certificate if you're choosing a security-rated door model.

How does it work in Dundee?

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.

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

Can I message you a photo of my garage in Dundee?

Yes. Photos of the opening, the inside of the garage above the door and any existing door help us give a more useful guide price for Dundee. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

Is the survey in Dundee 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.

Can you remove my old garage door in Dundee?

Yes. Every door price includes removing and disposing of an old roller or up-and-over door at your Dundee address, along with standard fixings and making good to the reveals. If the frame or lintel needs work, we price it at the survey before you agree.

Do you charge more for Dundee than other towns in Dundee and Angus?

No. Guide prices are the same for Dundee as for anywhere else we cover in Dundee and Angus. 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.

Can vision laths be added to my existing roller door?

Vision and vent laths are built into the curtain when a new door is made, which is why we offer them as an extra on new doors. Changing laths in an existing curtain depends on finding compatible laths for that door, so if you want daylight or ventilation in your current garage, it's usually simplest to plan them into a replacement door.

Do vent laths let rain or insects into the garage?

Vent laths have openings by design, so some air movement comes with them, and in very wet, windy weather a little moisture may get in. If you store things that must stay completely dry, keep them away from the door. Think about where the vent laths sit in the curtain, and discuss it at the survey before you decide.
