Shutter specification for a Bushmills unit
Bushmills is stone cottages and working farms, the door needs to look right and take a beating. We build that into every Bushmills survey, not the price sheet.
Most of the commercial work we do around Bushmills lands inside distillery-side units and Priestland Road workshops. Tenants there know us by name.
Bushmills sits 58 mi from Belfast and 68 mi from our Dromore yard via the A2.

Bushmills shutter FAQ
Q.Are they electrically operated?
Most are, with a key switch or internal control, plus a manual override for power failure. Small openings can be manual with a spring balance.
Q.Do fire shutters need testing?
Yes. A fire shutter should be tested and its operation documented on a scheduled basis, and we include that in maintenance contracts across Bushmills.
Q.What happens after an attempted break-in?
We attend, secure the opening, then quote repair or curtain replacement. Damaged laths can often be swapped individually rather than replacing the whole curtain.
Q.Will an insurer accept the shutter we fit?
Bring us the wording. We specify the curtain, guides and locking to the level the policy names, which is usually where a cheap shutter falls short.
Q.Can we keep the window display visible in Bushmills?
Yes. Punched vision lath or a brick-bond grille keeps the display readable overnight while still presenting a physical barrier.
Q.Can shutters be fitted inside the glazing line?
Yes. Internal shutters suit listed and conservation frontages around Bushmills where an external box would not be accepted.
