What happens across Devon?
In Devon, the usual route is the same wherever you are: a measured survey, an itemised quotation, then fitting at a time that suits the shop. Towns we cover include Plymouth, Exeter, Paignton and Torquay. Plymouth's post-war centre is unlike Exeter's older streets or the seaside towns of Torquay, Paignton and Exmouth.

What is worth knowing?
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 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.
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.
Do you need consent across Devon?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so your council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask about high-security shutters across Devon?
Can you match the shutter to my shopfront?
Yes. We powder coat to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as we can.
How much does a high-security shutter cost across Devon?
For an opening up to 3 m wide, guide prices start from £3,995 plus VAT. The survey sets the final price.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter across Devon?
An external shutter usually needs it, and your council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
What does LPS 1175 mean?
It is a Loss Prevention Standard for intruder-resistant products. The rating shows the tools tested and how long the product held out.
