How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. 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. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.
Specification options
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Key switch and remote operation
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Manual override for power cuts

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.

Questions about shop front shutters in Thatcham
Do you cover Thatcham?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Thatcham. We also cover nearby Newbury, Basingstoke and Didcot.
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.
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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
