- Electrics: Wired to BS 7671 by a qualified electrician.

Frequently asked questions
Are door shutters secure?
They add a strong physical layer in front of the door, especially with anti-lift locking. If you need a tested security rating, ask for a shutter certified to LPS 1175 or STS 202; the rating belongs to that tested product. PAS 24 applies to the door or window behind the shutter, not to the shutter itself.
Can it be opened from outside?
With a key switch, keypad or remote, yes. Without one, it can only be opened from inside, which suits back doors.
Do you cover Falkirk?
Yes. Falkirk and the FK1 postcode district are part of our coverage across Stirling & Falkirk.
Is the survey free in Falkirk?
Yes, surveys for new installations in Falkirk are free. Repair and service visits are charged.
