How does it work in Colchester?
We cover Colchester and postcodes including CO1, CO2 and CO4, and teams working here can also reach Sudbury and Clacton-on-Sea. Parking, deliveries and pavement space all go into the plan for fitting day.
What should you check before you decide?
What does one drawing change?
Everything lines up: door head, guide channels, fascia, sign fixing and power supply. It also gives your council or landlord one clear document to look at.
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.
What decides the final package price?
Width, height, frame material, curtain type, and whether the box can be hidden. Access and strip-out are the other two things that move the price.

An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Colchester 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.
