Door shutters for properties in Lichfield
Lichfield sits some 27 miles to the south-east of Stoke-on-Trent.
For back doors, French doors and bifolds in Lichfield, the shutter is sized to the full frame so the curtain closes onto a level threshold or a bottom rail.
Because a door shutter can cover an escape route, each one we fit in Lichfield has an inside control that works without a key, plus a manual override or battery backup.
We survey and install across Staffordshire, and Lichfield is one of the cities covered. Our coverage around Lichfield also includes Burntwood, Tamworth and Aldridge.

What to check in Lichfield before ordering
In Lichfield, as elsewhere in England, planning questions go to your local planning authority (the district, borough, city or unitary council).
- Electrics: Wired to BS 7671. Notifiable work in homes in England and Wales, such as a new circuit, is self-certified by a competent person scheme electrician or notified to building control.
- Getting out safely: A shutter over an exit door must open from inside quickly and without a key. We set the switch inside the door and add a manual override.
- Planning: Front-door shutters change how the house looks from the street, so check with your council first, especially in a conservation area or on a listed building.

Door roller shutters in Lichfield: questions
Can I get out if the door shutter is down?
Yes. The control is inside, and we fit a manual override so the shutter can be raised by hand if the power is off. We will not fit a shutter over your only exit that needs a key from inside.
Will it fit round my door handle?
The shutter runs in front of the door frame, so handles, letterboxes and door canopies are measured at survey and the guides are set out to clear them.
Is the survey free in Lichfield?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do you cover Lichfield?
Yes, we survey and fit in Lichfield (WS13) as part of our Staffordshire coverage.
