Security roller shutters in Greater London: the essentials
Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer. Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides. Every shutter is made to the measured opening, so the box, guides and curtain are sized for your frontage rather than cut from stock.
Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises. Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms.
Specification options
- External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice
- Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation

Covering Greater London
We cover Greater London from central London to Islington, Westminster and Bexley, with 81 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.

Questions about security roller shutters in Greater London
Do electric shutters still work in a power cut?
Electric shutters are fitted with a manual override, usually a hand crank or a release, so the shutter can be opened or closed without power.
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.
Can a roller shutter be fitted inside the shop?
Yes. Internal shutters sit behind the glazing, which protects the stock and usually avoids external planning issues, although the glass itself is left exposed.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
