Shutter questions from Holywood businesses
Q.Do you cover units around Holywood commercial area?
Yes, Holywood commercial area and the surrounding Holywood commercial area are on our regular service routes.
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.Can we keep the window display visible in Holywood?
Yes. Punched vision lath or a brick-bond grille keeps the display readable overnight while still presenting a physical barrier.
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.Do you service shutters you did not install?
Yes, across Holywood and the wider BT18 area, including planned maintenance visits on multi-site estates.
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 Holywood.
