Common questions

Do you cover all of Essex?

Yes. ShopFronts UK works across Essex, including Basildon, Billericay, Braintree, Brentwood.

A vehicle hit my shutter. Can it be repaired?

Often yes. Damaged laths can be replaced, but a bent barrel or distorted guides may need new parts or a new shutter. We can provide photos and an itemised invoice for an insurer, although the outcome of any claim is for them to decide.

Can you repair any make of shutter?

Many faults can be repaired on most makes, because laths, guides, motors and controls come from common component suppliers. Where a part has been discontinued, we look for a compatible alternative and tell you before ordering it.

Can I open my shutter by hand if the motor fails?

Usually yes, if it has a manual override such as a crank handle or hand chain. Follow the maker's instructions and do not force it. If there is no override or the curtain has jammed, leave it alone, because forcing it can bend laths or drop the curtain.
