Shop front shutters in Heywood: the essentials

Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.

Features to choose from

  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • 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 Heywood?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Heywood. We also cover nearby Middleton, Rochdale and Bury.

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.

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.

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.

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.
