Roller grilles in West Glamorgan: the essentials
Aluminium grilles are lighter and suit large unit fronts; steel grilles add strength. Brick-bond, tubular and link patterns give different levels of visibility and strength. Wide grilles use intermediate posts or a stronger curtain to resist being pushed in.
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.
Options we can specify
- Removable intermediate posts for wide units
- Solid kick panel option
- Suited to shopping centre unit fronts
- Manual or electric operation
- Aluminium or steel curtains
- Brick-bond, tubular or link lattice

Covering West Glamorgan
We cover West Glamorgan from Swansea to Neath and Gorseinon, with 3 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Wales, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in Wales
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.
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 Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.

Questions about roller grilles in West Glamorgan
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
Do your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
