What to know about shop front shutters in Barnes
Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
Features to choose from
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Key switch and remote operation
- Manual override for power cuts
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance

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.

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Barnes?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Barnes. We also cover nearby Chiswick, Putney and Fulham.
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.
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.
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.
Who carries out the work?
Work is carried out by experienced shutter engineers working for S&K Property Investments and Improvement Ltd, which is the company your contract is with.
