What to know about shop front shutters in Southend-on-Sea

Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.

Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering.

Specification options

  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal

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 Southend-on-Sea?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Southend-on-Sea. We also cover nearby Rayleigh, Canvey Island and South Benfleet.

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.

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 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.

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.
