Steel-look exterior screens
Fill a wide opening with one glazed wall — fixed panels, opening doors, or a mix.
About steel-look exterior screens
Where you've got a big opening at the back of the house and bifolds aren't the look you want, a steel-look screen turns the whole wall into glass with a fine black grid across it.
Configured to your opening: fixed panels where you just want light, opening doors where you need to get through, and the bar layout set out to suit the proportions.
Steel-look screens, fitted
Big fixed spans with a door built in where you need one.

Common questions
How long does it take to fit a front door?
Normally we take the old door out and fit the new one the same day. We'd confirm that at the survey so there are no surprises.
How long does it take to fit bifold doors?
If the bifolds are replacing French or sliding doors in the same size opening, that's usually a single day. The survey will confirm what's involved and you'll get an accurate timescale from it.
How secure are your doors?
All our doors come with either Yale or Ultion locks, with guarantees against break-in attacks on the property. Many of our products are Secured by Design accredited — the official UK police initiative for designing out crime.
What happens to my old door?
We remove it and take it away, to recycling where possible and disposed of properly where not.
Will I need planning permission?
Not usually, unless the building is listed. If you're in a conservation area or other designated area, check with your local planning authority before ordering.
What guarantees do you offer?
All our windows and doors come with a comprehensive 10-year insurance-backed guarantee, so the cover outlasts the invoice. Roofing and building work carries its own guarantee, and ProPERLA coatings come with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee on top of ours.
Do you really do all of this yourselves?
Yes. Windows, doors, roofing, building work, electrics and coatings are all our own teams. That's the point of the business — one contract and one point of contact, rather than you co-ordinating five firms and absorbing the gaps between them.
How long does a full house of windows take?
It depends on the number and style, but as a rule a whole house of eight to ten windows is fitted in one to two days. We survey first and manufacture every frame to the exact size of the opening, which keeps time on site down.
