How roller grilles work, and what to ask for

An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down. Councils often see roller grilles as more acceptable than solid shutters in town centres.

A clear-anodised or powder-coated finish keeps a grille looking smart. Grilles can be combined with a solid section at the base for kick protection.

  • Solid kick panel option
  • Optional polycarbonate infill

Where we work around Bishop Auckland

Jobs in Bishop Auckland are planned as part of our County Durham coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Newton Aycliffe, Durham and Chester-le-Street. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

Rules in England

Planning permission for shopfront shutters

In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

How it works

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Roller grilles: common questions

Do you cover Bishop Auckland?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair roller grilles in Bishop Auckland and the DL14 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

Do roller grilles need planning permission?

External roller grilles usually need planning permission like other external security. Councils often find them more acceptable than solid shutters.

Is a roller grille or a perforated shutter better?

A grille gives far more visibility and airflow, while a perforated shutter gives more privacy and weather protection. Shopping centres often specify grilles; high streets use both.

Can things be passed through a grille?

Small items can pass through an open lattice. Polycarbonate infill panels close the gaps if that is a concern.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.

What details help you quote quickly?

The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
