What to check in Acton before ordering
In Acton, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Planning: New external shutters can need planning permission, particularly on street-facing elevations.
- Fire strategy: If a shutter is on an escape route, it must fit the building's fire strategy and must not lock people in.
- Workplace safety: Powered doors in workplaces must be safe in use and properly maintained. We commission the safety devices and recommend a service interval.

What duty motor do I need?
It depends on how often the shutter opens. We ask about daily cycles at survey and size the motor and curtain so it is not overworked.

Yes, most commercial controls accept an input from access control, timers or alarm systems.
Is the survey free in Acton?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Acton are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
