What can you expect in Prestwick?
A frontage in Prestwick has to suit the street as well as the shop. South Ayrshire Council decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
