Roller shutters and security for Penrith businesses
Owners opening or refreshing a unit in Penrith use our roller shutters and security service to get one contract, one programme and one point of contact.
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.
How do we plan the job?
The survey for roller shutters and security in Penrith covers measurements, service capacity, access for deliveries and any planning or building control points.
In and around Penrith we are usually asked to work on convenience stores and off-licences and boutiques and independent retailers.
What is included?
- Annual service options
- Solid, perforated or punched lath shutters
- Open-mesh grilles for window display
- Electric motor with manual override
- Key switch or remote control
What should Penrith owners check first?
- 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.
- Your insurer may specify the security rating it wants.
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.
