Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Leighton Buzzard
Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.
Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.
What's included
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Key switch and remote operation
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Manual override for power cuts
- Separate door and window shutters if needed

Rules in England
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.

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Leighton Buzzard?
Yes. Leighton Buzzard (LU7) is within our Bedfordshire coverage, along with nearby Dunstable, Bletchley and Milton Keynes.
Which shutter is most likely to get planning approval?
Councils commonly prefer internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs, and boxes hidden behind the fascia. Solid external shutters are often refused in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.
Will a shutter lower my insurance premium?
It can help, and some insurers require a shutter for certain trades. Check your policy schedule for any stated standard before you order so the shutter meets it.
Can I keep my window display visible at night?
Yes. Perforated, punched or micro-perforated laths, or an open roller grille, let the display show through while the shopfront is secured.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
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.
