Main idea is the materials can be sourced very cheaply via gumtree and such.

The only thing I'm still trying to figure out is a suitable, cheap and available guttering/weathering system.
Not sure about a roller door mate. They are designed to be vertical and weighted. When closing more so than opening.
Even when installed as they are meant to go, they can be finicky.
I’d imagine laid out horizontally it will be a scumbag to get it to work nice, especially when trying to close it.
