What is worth knowing before you start?
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.
Is the box accessible for servicing?
It has to be. We build in a removable panel so that an engineer can reach the motor, brake and spring parts.
What do you need to know when I call?
The address, what has failed, whether you can open or lock up, and any make or model you can see on the box or motor.
Do you need consent in Cambridge?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Cambridge City Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask?
Do you cover Cambridge?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Cambridge?
Cambridge City Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Do you cover Cambridge for both the shopfront and shutter?
Yes. One surveyor and one fitting team handle both parts in Cambridge.
Who decides planning for a frontage in Cambridge?
Cambridge City Council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
