What happens across Gwent?
From city-centre units to village parades, the job starts the same way. Newport, Cwmbran, Pontypool and Ebbw Vale are among the places we cover. Councils here include Newport, Caerphilly and Blaenau Gwent. Newport and Cwmbran carry the larger units, with valleys towns such as Ebbw Vale and Tredegar and border towns such as Abergavenny and Monmouth.
What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.

Probably, if it is external. Your council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
