How roller grilles work, and what to ask for
Aluminium grilles are lighter and suit large unit fronts; steel grilles add strength. Councils often see roller grilles as more acceptable than solid shutters in town centres. Shopping centres often require roller grilles rather than solid shutters on unit fronts.
Roller grilles roll into a box like a shutter, and can be manual or electric. Brick-bond, tubular and link patterns give different levels of visibility and strength.
Specification options
- Manual or electric operation
- Aluminium or steel curtains
- Anodised or powder-coated finishes
- Suited to shopping centre unit fronts
- Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice
- Optional polycarbonate infill

Covering Rutland
We cover Rutland from Oakham to Uppingham, with 2 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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.
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered
Can a grille cover a very wide unit?
Yes, with a stronger curtain or removable intermediate posts to keep it rigid.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
