How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for
Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.
Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed. Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering.
Features to choose from
- Manual override for power cuts
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal

Rules in England
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.

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Luton?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Luton and the LU1 district, as part of our coverage across Bedfordshire.
Do I need planning permission for a shop shutter?
In most cases yes. External shutters change the appearance of a shopfront, so councils usually require planning permission, and listed buildings also need listed building consent. Internal shutters often do not need planning permission but may still need consent on a listed building.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
