Security shutters for Coleraine businesses, Londonderry
Coastal corrosion stripping paint and locking hinges on doors under 5 years old.
We specify and fit shutters for units, shopfronts and compartment openings across Coleraine and the wider BT51 area.

Coleraine is reached via the A26 and A26 dual carriageway, which suits out-of-hours install slots.

Shopfronts, units and compartment openings in BT51
North coast weather off the Bann estuary chews through cheap coatings, Coleraine jobs default to marine-grade every time. It's why a templated quote for Coleraine usually misses something.
Most of the commercial work we do around Coleraine lands inside Loughanhill Industrial Estate and Coleraine Enterprise Zone. Repeat installs come from word-of-mouth across those estates.
Coleraine sits 55 mi from Belfast and 62 mi from our Dromore yard via the A26 (with A26 dual carriageway access).

Shutter questions from Coleraine businesses
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.Do you service shutters you did not install?
Yes, across Coleraine and the wider BT51 area, including planned maintenance visits on multi-site estates.
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.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.What is the lead time for a Coleraine unit?
3-5 weeks (made to opening), since curtains, boxes and guides are made to the actual opening. Emergency boarding and temporary security can be arranged sooner.
Q.What is the difference between a security shutter and a fire shutter?
A security shutter resists forced entry. A fire shutter is a rated closure designed to hold a fire compartment for a specified period and is tested and certified as such. They are not interchangeable.
