What to know about shop front shutters in Downpatrick

A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered. 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. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Specification options

  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Manual override for power cuts

Rules in Northern Ireland

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Downpatrick?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Downpatrick. We also cover nearby Newtownards, Lisburn and Belfast.

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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
