Question 1

How much does an aluminium terrace roof cost?

Accepted Answer

The price depends on size, model and specification. We are happy to provide a free, individual quote based on your measurements.

Question 2

How long does installation take?

Accepted Answer

Most projects are installed within 1–3 days. The exact duration depends on the complexity and size of the structure.

Question 3

Can I estimate the price myself?

Accepted Answer

Yes, in the 3D configurator: model, roof, colour, lighting and side elements; send us the finished configuration with one click, we confirm the details after measuring.

Question 4

How long does manufacturing take?

Accepted Answer

Fastest with stock colours: anthracite RAL 7016, white aluminium RAL 9006, grey RAL 7040; a custom colour adds time for painting.

Question 5

What colours are available for aluminium structures?

Accepted Answer

Our products are available in a wide range of RAL colours — from classic anthracite and white to custom colours on request.

Question 6

How long does an aluminium structure last?

Accepted Answer

Aluminium is extremely durable and corrosion-resistant. Our structures are designed for a service life of several decades.

Question 7

What is the difference between a louvre roof and a glass roof?

Accepted Answer

A louvre roof has adjustable aluminium slats — you control light and ventilation steplessly. A glass roof is fixed glazing that permanently protects against rain.

Question 8

Can awnings be retrofitted?

Accepted Answer

Yes, many of our terrace roofs can be retrofitted with top-mount or under-roof awnings, vertical blinds or sliding doors.

Question 9

Glass or polycarbonate — which is better for the roof?

Accepted Answer

VSG glass: maximum light, high-end look, hail-resistant; polycarbonate: lighter and more affordable, diffuses light.

Question 10

Do you offer flat roofs for terraces?

Accepted Answer

Flat Line (minimalist flat roof) and SkyView (flat roof with glass) — both made to custom measurements.

Question 11

What types of awnings do you install?

Accepted Answer

Roof-mounted, under-roof, cassette, pergola and vertical awnings; the choice depends on the opening and orientation.

Question 12

How can I block low, low-angle side sun?

Accepted Answer

Vertical awnings, pleated blinds or aluminium louvre shutters; they also shield the terrace from view.

Question 13

What's the difference between SlideCold and a conservatory?

Accepted Answer

SlideCold 23: unheated sliding glazing, usable from spring to late autumn, noticeably cheaper; conservatory: heated room for year-round use.

Question 14

Which decking should I choose — WPC or aluminium?

Accepted Answer

WPC: wood look, no painting needed, moisture-resistant; aluminium: maximum durability and load capacity.

Question 15

Can I order a custom design?

Accepted Answer

Yes. All our structures are manufactured individually to your measurements and requirements. Special formats, colours and glass types are available.

Question 16

Do you dismantle existing verandas or terraces before installing a new one?

Accepted Answer

Yes. If needed, we dismantle existing verandas, terraces and other structures before installing the new one. The scope of work and cost are determined after an on-site inspection and agreed with the client.

Question 17

What options can I add to the roof?

Accepted Answer

LED lighting, integrated sound system, motorised awnings, sliding glass walls; either right away or as a later upgrade.

Question 18

Can I turn the roof into an enclosed terrace later?

Accepted Answer

Yes: glass walls or SlideCold can be added as a second stage — our structures are designed for this.

Question 19

Do you build carports? Can solar panels be installed on them?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Carport TDS made to custom measurements; we install the panels ourselves, their weight is factored into the structure from the start.

Question 20

Do I need planning permission for a terrace roof?

Accepted Answer

This depends on the size and federal state. In Hamburg, roofing up to a certain size is generally permit-free. We are happy to advise you on this.

Accepted Answer

We provide a 10-year guarantee on our aluminium structures — covering both materials and workmanship.
