What to know about roller grilles in Washington

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

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.

Options we can specify

  • Solid kick panel option
  • Suited to shopping centre unit fronts
  • Manual or electric operation
  • Optional polycarbonate infill
  • Anodised or powder-coated finishes
  • Aluminium or steel curtains

Where we work around Washington

Jobs in Washington are planned as part of our Tyne and Wear coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Chester-le-Street, Houghton-le-Spring and Hebburn. 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.

Roller grilles: common questions

Do you cover Washington?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Washington. We also cover nearby Chester-le-Street, Houghton-le-Spring and Hebburn.

Can a grille cover a very wide unit?

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

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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

Who carries out the work?

Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
