Frequently asked questions
How long do shutter motors last?
A good tubular motor commonly lasts many years in domestic use. If one fails it can be replaced without replacing the whole shutter.
Can I control shutters from my phone?
Yes, with a compatible smart hub. You can open and close shutters from an app, set timers and scenes, and use voice assistants.
Is the survey free in Thornton-Cleveleys?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Thornton-Cleveleys are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
Do I need permission for electric roller shutters in Thornton-Cleveleys?
Possibly. External shutters on listed buildings need listed building consent, and conservation areas often have tighter rules. We recommend checking with your local council first.
