What to know about security roller shutters in Exeter
Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.
Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides. The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning.
Options we can specify
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin

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.

Before you book in Exeter
Do you cover Exeter?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Exeter. We also cover nearby Exmouth, Tiverton and Newton Abbot.
How long does a roller shutter take to fit?
Most single shopfront shutters are fitted in a day once they have been made. Wider frontages, steel-framed openings or new power supplies can add time, and we confirm the installation day with your quote.
Will I need planning permission?
External shutters on commercial premises usually need planning permission, and listed buildings need listed building consent. We flag this at survey so you can apply before the shutter is ordered.
Should I choose aluminium or steel?
Aluminium is lighter, quieter and resists corrosion, so it suits most shops and offices. Galvanised steel is heavier and harder to cut through, so it is often chosen for industrial units and higher-risk premises.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
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.
