What to know about shop front shutters in Eastbourne

A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.

Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.

Options we can specify

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

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Eastbourne?

Yes. Eastbourne (BN21) is within our East Sussex coverage, along with nearby Hailsham, Seaford and Bexhill-on-Sea.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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