Shop front shutters in Barrow-in-Furness: the essentials

A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered. 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. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.

Options we can specify

  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks

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 Barrow-in-Furness?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Barrow-in-Furness. We also cover nearby Morecambe, Fleetwood and Lancaster.

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.

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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.
