Choosing shutter replacement for premises in Whitehaven
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.
The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement. A replacement can move the box behind the fascia for a tidier frontage where the structure allows.
Features to choose from
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Box relocation where possible
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Manual to electric at the same time

Rules in England
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
