Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Atherton

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. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.

What's included

  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Key switch and remote operation

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 Atherton?

Yes. Atherton (M46) is within our Greater Manchester coverage, along with nearby Tyldesley, Westhoughton and Leigh.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

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