Shop front shutters in Hove: the essentials

Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.

Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.

Specification options

  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Key switch and remote operation

Covering Hove and nearby

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 Hove?

Yes. Hove (BN3) is within our East Sussex coverage, along with nearby Burgess Hill, Worthing and Haywards Heath.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

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

Will you take away my old shutter?

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