Security roller shutters in Ashington: the essentials

A powder-coated finish in a RAL colour lets the shutter match a shopfront or cladding instead of standing out in bare metal. Most commercial shutters are now electric, with a tube or direct-drive motor, a key switch and a manual override for power cuts.

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.

Features to choose from

  • Bottom-rail locks, wind locks and anti-lift blocks
  • LPS 1175 rated options for higher-risk premises
  • External, behind-fascia or internal shutter box
  • Safety edge or photocells where the risk assessment calls for them
  • Solid, perforated, punched or vision laths
  • Key switch, remote control or timer operation

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.

How it works

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Ashington

Do you cover Ashington?

Yes. Ashington (NE63) is within our Northumberland coverage, along with nearby Morpeth, Cramlington and Whitley Bay.

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 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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
