Choosing shutter replacement for premises in Chester-le-Street
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first.
New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork. If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything.
Specification options
- Box relocation where possible
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Removal of the old shutter
