How does it work across Argyll and Bute?
In Argyll and Bute, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Helensburgh, Dunoon, Oban and Campbeltown. Oban, Dunoon and Helensburgh are small seafront and harbour towns, where salt air and exposure push the choice towards tough finishes.
What is worth knowing?
How long does a shutter last?
Curtains and guides can last many years with planned servicing. Motors, springs and locks go first, and a busy shop will wear them faster.
What about a fire exit?
A shutter must never trap people in. If it covers an escape route, it needs to be open while the premises are occupied, or opened easily from inside.
How is the shutter controlled?
By key switch, remote or both, and we specify a manual override for power cuts. Keep the override instructions somewhere that staff can find them.
