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.
Is the survey free in Ashton-under-Lyne?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
Do I need permission for manual roller shutters in Ashton-under-Lyne?
New external shutters on shopfronts and street-facing elevations usually need planning permission. If you are unsure, ask your local council; we provide product details for any application.
