How does it work in Bolton?
We cover Bolton and postcodes including BL1, BL3 and BL2, and teams working here can also reach Farnworth and Westhoughton. Parking, deliveries and pavement space all go into the plan for fitting day.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.
What will my insurer want?
Some insurers name a shutter type or rating, and many ask for locks and service records. Ask them before you order, as it saves a change later.
