Frequently asked questions
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.
Are manual shutters cheaper?
Yes, to buy and to run, but they cost staff time every day on busy premises.
Do you cover Christchurch?
Yes. Christchurch and the BH23 postcode district are part of our coverage across Dorset.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Christchurch?
It depends on the property. New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. Check with your local council before ordering; we can supply drawings.
