What can you expect in Chorley?
Our surveys in Chorley cover postcodes including PR6 and PR7, along with Horwich and Leyland. Planning applications here go to Chorley Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you think about first?
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.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
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 should you budget?
