On a new build estates we often fit internally where an external box would not suit the frontage.
Dundonald Hospital area commercial and the Dundonald commercial area sit on our regular shutter service routes.

Shutter questions from Dundonald businesses
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.
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.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.Can shutters be fitted inside the glazing line?
Yes. Internal shutters suit listed and conservation frontages around Dundonald where an external box would not be accepted.
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 Dundonald.
Q.Do you service shutters you did not install?
Yes, across Dundonald and the wider BT16 area, including planned maintenance visits on multi-site estates.
