Shopfronts and shutters for convenience stores
Convenience stores take more door movements than almost any other shop, and they hold stock that thieves want.
What does a convenience store need?
A door that can take constant use, good sightlines from the till to the street, and glass that does not hide the shop. An automatic sliding door is worth pricing when customers are carrying baskets and pushing buggies.
Which shutter suits a convenience store?
Most stores choose a solid or perforated electric shutter. Long-hours stores use it for only a few hours a night, so a reliable motor and a planned service matter more than anything fancy.
How do I protect tobacco and alcohol stock?
Laminated security glass gives you time, a shutter gives you more, and internal grilles can protect a high-value area. Ask your insurer what they require, as it often decides the specification.
