Questions we will ask at the survey
Floor guide
A bottom guide keeps the leaves aligned. Recessed guides keep the floor flush.
Look
Bi-folds read as a screen rather than a lattice, which suits modern interiors.
Planning and safety in Scotland
Listed buildings and conservation areas
Listed buildings in Scotland need listed building consent for works affecting their character, decided by the council, with Historic Environment Scotland consulted on some cases. Conservation areas bring extra scrutiny of external changes. Check with the council before ordering.
Grilles inside the glass
A grille fitted inside the glass does not normally need planning permission in Scotland, as it does not materially change the outside of the building. If the building is listed, listed building consent may still be needed.

Bi-folding security gates in Stranraer: questions
Can you work in Stranraer?
Work in Stranraer is arranged individually because of travel. Send your postcode and details and we will confirm what is possible.
Do bi-fold gates need a floor track?
They need some bottom guidance, which can be a recessed channel or discreet floor pins rather than a raised track.
What is the difference between a bi-fold gate and a retractable grille?
A retractable grille uses a scissor lattice that concertinas; a bi-fold gate uses rigid hinged leaves that fold flat. Bi-folds look more architectural; retractables fold into a narrower stack.
Can a bi-fold gate go outside?
Yes, with galvanised steel and an external-grade track, though most are fitted inside.
