How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for

A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.

What's included

  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • 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.

  2. We survey the opening

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Questions about shop front shutters in Peterlee

Do you cover Peterlee?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Peterlee and the SR8 district, as part of our coverage across County Durham.

Can the shutter match my shopfront colour?

Yes. Shutters can be powder coated to a RAL colour, and the box and guides can be finished to match.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
