Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Waltham Abbey

Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning.

Where an insurer or police adviser asks for a tested product, rated shutters certified to LPS 1175 are available. Perforated or punched laths let light and window displays show through while the shutter is down.

What's included

  • Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
  • Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
  • Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
  • Key switch, remote control or timer operation
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Waltham Abbey?

Yes. Waltham Abbey (EN9) is within our Essex coverage, along with nearby Cheshunt, Loughton and Chingford.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.
