What can you expect in Whitby?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Whitby, and we also cover Scarborough and Guisborough. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
What is worth knowing?
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.
Do I need a safety edge?
That depends on the risk assessment. Powered shutters near the public are assessed against BS EN 12453, and we quote what the result calls for.
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.
What should you budget?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Whitby?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from North Yorkshire Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
