Perforated and grille shutters let passers-by in March see the window display after hours, which many councils prefer on shopping streets.
We check the fascia, the box space and the power supply on every shopfront in March before quoting, so the fixed price reflects the real job.
If your address has a PE15 postcode, it falls within our Cambridgeshire coverage. We also cover Wisbech, Ely and Peterborough, so premises in more than one of these places can be quoted together.

- Centre rules: Shopping centres often specify finishes and operation; we work to the landlord's fit-out pack.

Roller grilles in March: questions
Are roller grilles secure?
They form a strong barrier against entry, but small items could be reached through the gaps, so they suit displays rather than open counters of small goods.
Can a grille go inside the shop?
Yes. Internal grilles behind the glass are common where planning or the landlord prefers the shopfront unchanged.
Do I need permission for roller grilles in March?
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.
Is the survey free in March?
Yes, for new installations. We tell you the cost of any repair or service visit before booking.
