Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Welling

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.

Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.

What's included

  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch and remote operation

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.

Questions about shop front shutters in Welling

Do you cover Welling?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Welling. We also cover nearby Bexley, Eltham and Thamesmead.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
