Shop front shutters in Purley: the essentials
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. 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
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal

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.

Before you book in Purley
Do you cover Purley?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Purley. We also cover nearby Coulsdon, South Croydon and Wallington.
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 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.
Is the survey free?
Yes, for new shutters, grilles and doors: the survey and written quote are free and there is no obligation to go ahead. Repair and servicing visits are charged, and we tell you the price before we visit.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
