What happens in Burntwood?
Our surveys in Burntwood cover postcodes including WS7, along with Brownhills and Great Wyrley. Planning applications here go to Lichfield District Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you think about first?
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.
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.
