Choosing roller grilles for premises in Formby

Brick-bond, tubular and link patterns give different levels of visibility and strength. Roller grilles roll into a box like a shutter, and can be manual or electric.

Shopping centres often require roller grilles rather than solid shutters on unit fronts. An open curtain lets air and light through, so displays stay on view and the unit does not look closed down.

What's included

  • Removable intermediate posts for wide units
  • Solid kick panel option
  • Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
  • Anodised or powder-coated finishes
  • Optional polycarbonate infill
  • Aluminium or steel curtains

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

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  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.

Before you book in Formby

Do you cover Formby?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair roller grilles in Formby and the L37 district, as part of our coverage across Merseyside.

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.

Can a grille cover a very wide unit?

Yes, with a stronger curtain or removable intermediate posts to keep it rigid.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.

Is the survey free?

Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
