Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Chingford

Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.

A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Options we can specify

  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • 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.

Shop front shutters: common questions

Do you cover Chingford?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Chingford. We also cover nearby Woodford Green, Edmonton and Loughton.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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

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.
