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 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.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
Will this need planning permission in Torquay?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Torbay 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 in Torquay?
Do you cover the postcodes around Torquay?
Yes, including TQ1 and TQ2.
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.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Torquay?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Torbay 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.
