- Matched to aluminium, uPVC or timber frames
- White, black, anthracite or RAL
- Multi-leaf grilles for openings up to several metres
- Low-profile or recessed floor tracks
- Optional extra locking points for wide spans

Consents and safety: Scotland
Bedroom and escape windows
In Scotland, escape from homes is covered by the Building Standards technical handbooks (section 2, fire). Where a room relies on a window for escape, nothing fitted over it should stop it being used. We only fit grilles over escape windows with a keyless internal release.
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.

Patio and bifold door grilles in Dunoon: questions
Can you survey in Dunoon and nearby towns?
Yes. Surveys in Dunoon, Greenock, Helensburgh and elsewhere in Argyll and Bute are booked around installer availability.
How long does fitting take?
A typical set of patio doors takes half a day once the grille is made.
Can I walk over the grille track?
Yes. Low-profile tracks are a few millimetres high, and recessed tracks sit flush with the floor.
Will a grille get in the way of my bifold doors?
No. We plan the stack so the bifold leaves and the grille fold to positions that do not clash.
