What happens across Merseyside?
We work right across Merseyside, including Liverpool, Birkenhead, St Helens and Southport. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include Liverpool, Wirral and Sefton. Bold Street and the Liverpool city centre sit alongside town centres in Birkenhead, Southport and St Helens.
What should you check before you decide?
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.
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 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 much will it cost?

Grille or shutter: which is better?
A grille keeps the shop on show and suits lower-risk streets. A shutter gives more protection and hides stock.
