What to know about shop front shutters in Ellesmere Port
Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering.
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.
Options we can specify
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Manual override for power cuts

Before you book in Ellesmere Port
Do you cover Ellesmere Port?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Ellesmere Port. We also cover nearby Chester, Halewood and Bebington.
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.
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.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
