What makes the difference?
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.
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 you need consent in Northfield?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Birmingham City 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 insulated roller shutters in Northfield?
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Northfield?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Birmingham City Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
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 Northfield?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
Are insulated shutters quieter?
Yes. Foam-filled laths rattle less, which is useful under flats.
