Roller shutters and security contractors in Cambridge
Need roller shutters and security in Cambridge? We survey the unit, draw the layout with you and give a fixed, itemised price before anything is ordered.
Shop roller shutters are steel or aluminium curtains that roll into a box above the shopfront, closed at night to protect the glass and stock. Perforated and grille types let light and window display show through.
What happens at the survey?
For Cambridge jobs we confirm loading and parking arrangements early, because access often shapes the programme as much as the build itself.
In and around Cambridge we are usually asked to work on shopping centre units and retail park stores and salons, barbers and beauty clinics.
What is included?
- Solid, perforated or punched lath shutters
- Open-mesh grilles for window display
- Electric motor with manual override
- Key switch or remote control
- Powder coating to match the shopfront
What should Cambridge owners check first?
- Your insurer may specify the security rating it wants.
- Electric shutters need safety edges or photocells to stop them closing on people.
- Externally fitted shutters often need planning permission, and some councils prefer internal grilles.
In England, fit-out work that affects fire escape, structure, drainage or accessibility falls under the Building Regulations and is signed off by local authority or approved inspector building control. Shopfronts, extraction flues and illuminated signs are dealt with separately by the local planning authority.
