What is worth knowing?
Is the box accessible for servicing?
It has to be. We build in a removable panel so that an engineer can reach the motor, brake and spring parts.
Will the colours really match?
Frame and shutter are powder coated to the same RAL reference. Coating on different materials can vary slightly, which we will show you on samples first.
How does a joint install save trading time?
The frontage and shutter go in as one sequence, so you close once. With two contractors, you close twice and hope they agree on who damaged what.
Do you need consent in Chelmsford?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Chelmsford City Council. 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.
What do people ask about shopfront and shutter packages in Chelmsford?
Can you fit a package around my trading hours in Chelmsford?
Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours fitting can be arranged.
Do you cover Chelmsford for both the shopfront and shutter?
Yes. One surveyor and one fitting team handle both parts in Chelmsford.
Who decides planning for a frontage in Chelmsford?
Chelmsford City Council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
Can the shutter box be hidden?
Usually, yes. When the frontage is new we can build the box in behind the fascia and leave an access panel for servicing. Head height above the door decides how much room there is.
