What happens in Kensington?
Our surveys in Kensington cover postcodes including W8, SW5 and SW7, along with Notting Hill and Chelsea. Planning applications here go to Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What makes the difference?
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 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.
