What can you expect in Greenwich?
Most shop owners come to us at one of three points: a new lease, a break-in, or a frontage that has finally given up. In each case the first step is a survey, and we cover postcodes including SE10, SE3 and SE7.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
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.
What are the guide prices?

Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Greenwich?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Royal Borough of Greenwich. 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.

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 soon can you fit an insulated roller shutter in Greenwich?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Greenwich?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Royal Borough of Greenwich decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.

They reduce draught through the opening, which helps most when there is no good glazing behind the shutter.
