Yes, for large doors, on upper floors, or if there are mobility issues. The investment pays off in comfort within a season. A highly sought-after improvement today is combining a motorised roller shutter with an integrated roller mosquito net in the same box. It allows both the shutter and the net to be operated independently, both hidden when not in use. It's the standard solution in modern new builds. For renovations of existing homes, it requires replacing the entire box with a deeper new one to accommodate both systems. Typical seasonal movement of solid wood with humidity.

A modern, well-installed interior door perceptibly changes the feel of a room. An old painted solid wood door from the 80s, with worn hinges that scrape the floor and a loose handle, immediately lowers the perceived quality of the space. Replacing it with a modern lacquered MDF or multi-laminate door with adjustable concealed hinges and a quality handle costs a reasonable amount and lasts another 30-40 years without seasonal movement or the need for periodic varnishing. For detached houses, single-family homes in high-risk areas, or owners with previous experience of attempted break-ins, we recommend high-security cylinders like Cisa Astral S, Mul-T-Lock MT5+, Tesa T80 Plus, or Mottura Champions. These achieve EN1303 Grade 6, include all anti-tamper features (bumping, picking, drilling, extraction). They come with the manufacturer's anti-burglary insurance guarantee. This guarantee is relevant; if a break-in occurs despite this and you can prove the cylinder was tampered with, the manufacturer covers part of the damage. Official manufacturer warranty 5-10 years depending on brand and model. Plus 30 days on workmanship.

Reasonable cost and a significant real improvement over standard options. The cost of scheduled maintenance is always less than the cumulative cost of reactive emergencies. The data we've collected from our own clients confirms this year after year.
