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

Weigh up insulation if you're choosing insulated laths, as vent laths let air through and vision laths hold less heat.
Consider the height you want the laths at, for example level with a workbench or higher up to keep the view in limited.
Think about privacy, because vision laths can let people glimpse what's inside when the garage light is on after dark.
Check the agreed position of the laths in your written quote, and again on fitting day before the installer finishes.

Rules that apply in Wishaw

Electrics

An electric door needs a power supply near the roller box. Part P does not apply in Scotland, but electrical work must meet BS 7671 and the Scottish building standards where it forms part of building work.

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.

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

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

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 Wishaw. Send them by WhatsApp or mention them in your enquiry, and we will reply in writing.

How long does it take to fit a roller garage door in Wishaw?

Most single domestic roller doors are fitted in a day once the door has been made, including removing the old door. Wider doors, conversions that need building work and jobs where power has to be run can take longer; the quote says what to expect.

Can I get a price for Wishaw without anyone visiting?

Yes. The guide price tool takes four steps and gives a range for your opening and door type. It is a guide, not a quote: the written quote comes after the survey or once the visit price is agreed.

Is the survey in Wishaw 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.

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.

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.
