Shop front shutters in Exmouth: the essentials
Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.
What's included
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Key switch and remote operation
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal

Rules in England
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In England an external shutter on a shopfront is usually treated as development that needs planning permission from the local planning authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Many councils' shopfront design guides favour internal shutters, perforated or open-grille designs and boxes hidden behind the fascia, and some refuse solid external shutters in conservation areas and on main shopping streets.

Questions about shop front shutters in Exmouth
Do you cover Exmouth?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Exmouth and the EX8 district, as part of our coverage across Devon.
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 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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it 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.
