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

Consider the height you want the laths at, for example level with a workbench or higher up to keep the view in limited.
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.
Think about privacy, because vision laths can let people glimpse what's inside when the garage light is on after dark.

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

What do you check at a survey in EH41?

At a survey in EH41 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.

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

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 Haddington garage so you can compare.

Do you cover Haddington?

Yes. Haddington is part of the area we cover in Edinburgh and the Lothians, including EH41. Get a guide price online, then we confirm a survey or visit date in writing. Dates depend on installer and engineer availability.

Is the survey in Haddington 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 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.

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.
