What can you expect in Shirley?
We aim to fit the survey around your opening hours in Shirley, and we also cover Solihull and Acocks Green. You get the same written quotation wherever the shop is.
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.
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.
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 should you budget?

Do you need consent in Shirley?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
