Frequently asked questions

What is the main difference between a conservatory and an orangery?2026-10-13T22:11:17+01:00

The main differences lie in wall construction, roof design, glazing proportions and overall architectural appearance. Conservatories typically have predominantly glazed walls and roofs, while orangeries usually combine solid wall sections with large windows and a roof lantern.

Is an orangery better than a conservatory?2026-10-13T22:10:48+01:00

Neither is universally better. The right choice depends on your property, intended use, budget and preferred design. An orangery may suit a kitchen-diner extension, while a conservatory may be ideal for a garden room or relaxation space.

Is an orangery warmer than a conservatory?2026-10-13T22:10:32+01:00

Thermal comfort depends on the whole building design, insulation, glazing, ventilation, orientation and heating rather than the name of the extension alone. Both conservatories and orangeries can be comfortable year-round when properly specified.

Which is cheaper to build: a conservatory or an orangery?2026-10-13T22:08:21+01:00

A conservatory may have a lower starting cost in some cases, but specification, size, structural work and finishes can change the comparison. A high-specification conservatory can cost more than a simple orangery.

Can you use a conservatory all year round?2026-10-13T22:08:07+01:00

With suitable glazing, roof specification, ventilation, shading and heating, a conservatory can be used for much of the year. Modern glass roofs and solar-control glazing improve year-round usability.

Does an orangery need a roof lantern?2026-10-13T22:07:52+01:00

Roof lanterns are a characteristic feature of many orangeries, but designs vary. The final configuration depends on the architectural approach and the homeowner’s preferences.

Can I have an aluminium conservatory or orangery?2026-10-13T22:07:25+01:00

Yes, aluminium is a suitable option for many designs, subject to the selected system and project requirements. Aluminium offers slim sightlines and a contemporary appearance.

Are uPVC conservatories still a good option?2026-10-13T22:07:05+01:00

Yes. Modern uPVC systems offer design flexibility, low maintenance and appropriate thermal performance. uPVC is available in a range of colours and finishes beyond basic white.

Are smart doors secure?2026-06-12T15:47:23+01:00

Absolutely. In many ways they are more secure than traditional doors. There are no external key cylinders to pick or snap, access is encrypted, and you can monitor all entry events. Our Schüco systems achieve RC2 security ratings, offering robust protection against forced entry.

What maintenance do bi‑fold doors require?2026-05-18T15:58:20+01:00

Maintenance is minimal. Wipe down frames with a mild soapy solution, lubricate hinges and tracks annually with a silicone‑based spray, and check that drainage channels are clear. The factory‑applied powder coating does not need repainting.

How long do aluminium doors typically last?2025-12-11T21:57:15+00:00

A high-quality aluminium door system, like those from Schüco, can last 40-45 years or more with minimal care. The aluminium itself does not degrade, and the powder-coated finishes are designed to withstand decades of UK weather without fading, peeling, or corroding.

Can I integrate smart locks or access systems?2025-07-11T14:45:57+01:00

Yes. Schüco doors can be equipped with biometric, keypad, or smartphone access systems for modern convenience.

Do you offer a threshold that is flush with the floor for wheelchair access?2026-03-11T22:43:52+00:00

Yes. Schüco’s advanced modular systems, particularly those built on the AD UP platform, support barrier-free living. We can supply and install doors with a fully flush, zero-threshold threshold, creating a seamless transition between inside and out that is ideal for wheelchair users, pushchairs, and simply reducing trip hazards.

Are they suitable for both modern and period properties?2025-10-08T23:00:34+01:00

Absolutely. The clean lines of our aluminium casement windows are perfect for contemporary homes, while our uPVC and timber-aluminium composite options can be tailored with traditional details and colours to sympathetically enhance period properties.

How secure are bi‑fold doors?2026-05-18T16:00:42+01:00

Schüco systems are inherently secure thanks to multi‑point locking, anti‑lift devices, toughened glass and robust aluminium frames. When specified, they can meet PAS 24 and Secured by Design standards, providing a very high level of protection against intrusion.

How long does installation take?2025-10-23T15:17:16+01:00

The installation itself is surprisingly fast. Once any preparatory work on your flat roof is complete, our specialist team can often install the lantern roof in just 1-2 days.

How long does it take to manufacture and install a Schüco entrance door?2025-07-11T14:45:05+01:00

Lead times vary by design and specifications, but typically range from 4–8 weeks including installation.

Are bi-fold doors better than sliding doors?2026-09-18T10:25:22+01:00

Neither is universally better. Bi-fold doors are ideal if you want the widest possible physical opening and flexible ventilation. Sliding doors are ideal if you prioritise uninterrupted views, large glass panels, and a minimalist aesthetic. The right choice depends on your priorities and your property.

Are triple-glazed uPVC windows worth considering?2026-10-04T13:24:24+01:00

Triple glazing offers superior thermal and acoustic performance compared with double glazing. It’s worth considering for noisy locations, homes aiming for maximum energy efficiency, or properties with large glazed areas. However, it isn’t necessary for every property — a well-specified double-glazed window is more than adequate for many homes.

What are Smart Front Doors and how do they work?2026-10-06T14:12:44+01:00

Smart front doors combine high-performance door construction with electronic, biometric, or wireless technology to control locking and unlocking. They can be operated via smartphone apps, fingerprints, or remote access systems.

Do I need planning permission?2025-10-23T15:16:50+01:00

In most cases, no. Installing a roof lantern on an existing flat roof typically falls under “Permitted Development” rights. If it’s part of a new extension, it’s usually covered by the (often-permitted) extension plans. We can provide advice on this during our survey, but we always recommend checking with your local authority.

Do you offer guarantees?2025-07-16T15:29:28+01:00

Absolutely. We provide 10-year product guarantees and a comprehensive installation warranty.

Are patio doors double glazed?2025-06-11T15:18:47+01:00

Sliding patio doors are usually made of two large glass panels, which open by sliding one panel behind the other. Sliding doors provide easy access to gardens and patios.

Are aluminium windows difficult to maintain?2026-09-02T22:03:50+01:00

No, they are very low maintenance. An occasional clean with warm soapy water is all that is usually needed to keep frames looking their best. They do not require painting or special treatments like timber windows.

What kind of guarantee do you offer?2025-09-18T20:52:25+01:00

We provide a comprehensive, insurance-backed guarantee covering the door slab, frame, hardware, and installation, giving you complete peace of mind. Please ask for full details during your consultation.

What front door style is best for a traditional property?2026-10-06T14:13:06+01:00

Traditional panelled doors, part-glazed doors with decorative glass, and modern doors designed to replicate classic timber styles are often suitable for traditional properties.

What base or foundations are required?2025-11-09T15:39:37+00:00

A solid, level base (like a concrete foundation or an existing patio) is essential. While we specialise in the supply and installation of the conservatory structure itself, we can project manage the entire build and work with trusted groundworkers to prepare the base for you.

What is the Average Size of Patio Doors?2025-06-11T15:18:47+01:00

2,090mm (6ft 8″) in height and 1,790mm (5ft 8″) in width is the average size for a patio door.
