Frequently asked questions
Are manual shutters cheaper?
Yes, to buy and to run, but they cost staff time every day on busy premises.
Why is my push-up shutter heavy?
The springs that balance the curtain lose tension over time. Re-tensioning or replacing them usually fixes it.
Do you cover Coleraine?
Yes, we survey and fit in Coleraine (BT52) as part of our County Londonderry coverage.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Coleraine?
Possibly. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. We recommend checking with your local council first.
