Choosing security roller shutters for premises in Dartford

Insulated double-skin laths reduce heat loss and noise through the opening, which helps unheated units and stock rooms. Aluminium laths keep the curtain light and quiet, while galvanised steel adds weight and resistance for higher-risk premises.

Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks stop the curtain being forced upwards or bowed out of its guides. A powder-coated finish in a RAL colour lets the shutter match a shopfront or cladding instead of standing out in bare metal.

Specification options

  • Manual push-up, hand-crank or electric operation
  • Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
  • External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
  • Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
  • Aluminium or galvanised steel laths, single or double-skin

Where we work around Dartford

Jobs in Dartford are planned as part of our Kent coverage, and visits can be combined with jobs in nearby Bexley, Swanley and Welling. Planning rules are those of your local council in England.

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 Dartford?

Yes. Dartford (DA1) is within our Kent coverage, along with nearby Bexley, Swanley and Welling.

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.

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 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.
