What happens in Covent Garden?
A frontage in Covent Garden has to suit the street as well as the shop. City of Westminster decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.
What makes the difference?
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.
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.
How much will it cost?
