What to know about security roller shutters in Romford
Electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and a handover pack, so you have the paperwork for your records and your insurer. The shutter box can sit outside the opening, behind a fascia or inside the building, which affects both appearance and planning.
Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts. Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises.
Options we can specify
- Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
- Manual override for power cuts on electric shutters
- Key switch, remote control or timer operation
- Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
- Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin
- Powder coating to a RAL colour of your choice

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 Romford?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair security roller shutters in Romford and the RM1 district, as part of our coverage across Greater London.
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 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.
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 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.
