Shopfronts, units and compartment openings in BT29
Glenavy is Lough Neagh commuter belt, 15 minutes from Dromore via the M1, and we quote it accordingly. It's why a templated quote for Glenavy usually misses something.
Most of the commercial work we do around Glenavy lands inside Nutts Corner commercial (shared) and Crumlin Road units. Repeat installs come from word-of-mouth across those estates.
Glenavy sits 14 mi from Belfast and 15 mi from our Dromore yard via the A26 (with M1 (Junction 9) access).

Shutter questions from Glenavy businesses
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 Glenavy.
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.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.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.Do you cover units around Nutts Corner commercial (shared)?
Yes, Nutts Corner commercial (shared) and the surrounding Glenavy commercial area are on our regular service routes.
