Questions about roller grilles in Whitstable
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.
Is the survey free in Whitstable?
For new shutters, yes. Repair visits in Whitstable are charged because they include diagnosis and work on the day.
