External roller blinds, Gdynia

PORTOS’s external roller blinds in Gdynia — ranges and profiles

We work with the PORTOS system, so we start by selecting the frame. The options available are aluminium profiles filled with PUR foam and PVC profiles — the former being stiffer and better at withstanding wind from the bay, whilst the latter are a sensible choice for smaller windows sheltered by surrounding buildings. The window frames are available in surface-mounted and top-mounted versions, i.e. installed without altering the reveal and without modifying the opening.

The drive type is chosen according to how you will use it: manual with tape or crank, or electric with the option of integration into Smart Home and group control — convenient when you have multiple windows or seasonal use. A version with built-in insect screen in the same housing is also available. In coastal areas, we pay particular attention to profile finishing, hardware material, and fastening components.

Free quote for external roller blinds in Gdynia

We do not publish price lists or price ranges, as we quote for each opening individually following a site survey. Several factors influence the price range for external roller blinds:

• dimensions and number of windows — the width of the armour determines the choice of profile and the size of the frame,
• type of armour — aluminium with PUR foam or PVC,
• installation type — surface-mounted or over-the-top,
• colour and finish — standard, colour from the palette, wood grain,
• drive — manual, electric, controlled via the Smart Home system,
• option with mosquito net.

We also look at the working conditions separately: the floor level, access to the façade, the possibility of using a cherry picker, and carrying components up a narrow stairwell. In Gdynia’s hillside developments, access right up to the building can sometimes be limited, and this must also be taken into account.

Replacement and installation in Gdynia’s built environment — what we take into account

Gdynia offers a wide variety of conditions within a small area. Prefabricated blocks of flats from the 1970s and 1980s usually have replacement windows, with no provision for roller shutters — in such cases, the natural solution is a box fitted over the frame, installed from the outside without damaging the reveal and without the need for bricklaying work. In detached houses from the 1990s and later, the top-mounted variant is more often the preferred choice.

The second factor is the location — less than 6 km from the sea. Salty, humid air accelerates the corrosion of small components: screws, springs, guides and brackets. That is why, for orders to addresses in Gdynia, we select coatings and fittings with a margin of resistance, rather than the minimum specification. Added to this is exposure to the wind — on upper floors and on buildings without shelter from the west, this influences the choice of profile thickness.

What is the process for fitting external roller blinds in Gdynia?

The order is always the same, and we try to stick to it to the day:

• Measurement — we visit the site, measure each opening individually, check the type of window, the depth of the reveal and access to the façade. The journey to Gdynia from our offices in Kochanów (Luzino municipality) is approximately 29 km, so we usually arrange a survey at short notice.
• Quotation and order — once the measurements have been taken, you’ll receive a quotation for the specific dimensions, colours and operating mechanism. Once you’ve approved the roller blinds, they’ll go into production.
• Installation — we fit the guide rails, secure the boxes, connect the power supply for the electric drive, configure the limit switches and any Smart Home controls.
• Collection — we check that the armour is working correctly across its full range of movement, make any necessary adjustments, demonstrate how to use it and hand over the warranty documents.

We usually complete the installation of a standard set of windows in a flat within one working day.

We also serve the surrounding area

As well as in Gdynia, we install external roller shutters along the entire coastal strip around the city. We regularly travel to Dębogórze (2 km), Kosakowo (3 km), Obłuże (4 km) and Oksywie (6 km), to Rumi (4 km) and to Mosty (5 km). The environmental conditions are practically the same — proximity to open water, humid and salty air — so we select the coatings, fittings and installation components in exactly the same way there as we do for jobs in Gdynia.

If we have several addresses in the same area, we combine the measurements and installations into a single visit — for the customer, this means a shorter waiting time. Not sure if we cover your area? Give us a call or send us a message, and we’ll confirm straight away and arrange a free survey.
