What is worth knowing before you start?
What affects the price most?
Width, the number of doors, glass type and any strip-out. A second door or a laminated upgrade moves the figure more than the colour does.
How is the frontage measured?
We measure the structural opening, not the old frame. Lintel condition, floor level and how square the opening is all get recorded at survey.
Do you work on any make?
Most commercial shutters and door gear. We will tell you straight away if parts are no longer available.
Will this need planning permission in Southsea?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Portsmouth 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.
