We specify and fit shutters for units, shopfronts and compartment openings across Portstewart and the wider BT55 area.
Shutter specification for a Portstewart unit
Portstewart's promenade-facing homes need finishes that hold up to Atlantic weather without looking industrial. It's why a templated quote for Portstewart usually misses something.
Most of the commercial work we do around Portstewart lands inside Coleraine Road commercial. Repeat installs come from word-of-mouth across those estates.
Portstewart sits 55 mi from Belfast and 65 mi from our Dromore yard via the A2.

Portstewart shutter FAQ
Q.Can shutters be fitted inside the glazing line?
Yes. Internal shutters suit listed and conservation frontages around Portstewart where an external box would not be accepted.
Q.Do you cover units around Coleraine Road commercial?
Yes, Coleraine Road commercial and the surrounding Portstewart commercial area are on our regular service routes.
Q.Can we keep the window display visible in Portstewart?
Yes. Punched vision lath or a brick-bond grille keeps the display readable overnight while still presenting a physical barrier.
Q.What is the lead time for a Portstewart 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.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.
