What makes our installations work harder
Accurate surveying
Careful measuring helps the shutter align properly and reduces the risk of jamming.
Neat positioning
We plan the box, guides and fixing points to suit the entrance and frontage layout.
Clear handover
You leave the job knowing how the shutter works, locks and should be used each day.
Get an electric shutter that fits the frontage properly
A proper installation starts before any metal goes near the opening. At DK Shopfronts Shutters Ltd, we visit the site in Hounslow to measure accurately, check the construction around the opening and talk through how the electric shutter needs to work each day. We help you choose a setup that suits the frontage, from manual closing for simple use to electric operation where staff need quicker locking up. Then we size the shutter, fit guides and barrel, install the curtain and make sure the whole system travels smoothly, closes securely and sits neatly in the entrance.
Installation planned around the real site
Good fitting is not just about bolting a shutter in place. With DK Shopfronts Shutters Ltd, we also plan access, working space, mounting position and power needs before the job starts. If the shutter is part of a new frontage or upgrade, we can coordinate around shop front installation, doors and glazing so measurements line up and the finished look stays tidy. To speed up a quote, send the opening size if you know it, photos of the shopfront, details on internal or external mounting, and any limits on trading hours or access.
Frequently asked questions
How do you choose the right shutter for my opening?
We look at the opening size, the material around it, where the shutter will sit and how often it will be used. We also check whether manual or electric operation makes more sense. That way, the shutter is sized properly and fitted to work smoothly instead of being forced into place.
Can you install manual or electric systems?
Yes. We fit both, and we guide you through the practical difference rather than pushing one answer. Manual systems suit simpler setups, while electric shutters can make daily opening and closing easier where staff need quicker operation and power is available.
What should I send before asking for a quote?
Photos of the opening, approximate dimensions, details on internal or external mounting and any access limits all help. If you want an electric shutter, let us know about the nearby power supply too. That gives us a clearer picture before we arrange the site visit.
