What is worth knowing before you start?
What about the fascia and sign?
We set out the fascia at the same time, so your sign fixings and any shutter box do not clash. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area.
What does the written quotation show?
Every item: frame, glass, doors, stallriser, strip-out and any electrics. It stays valid for 90 days, and nothing is ordered until you accept.
How do I stop it happening again?
Most failures give a warning: noise, slow running, a door that needs a push. A planned service catches these early.
Do you need consent in Newtownabbey?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Antrim and Newtownabbey Borough Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
