Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Rochdale
Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. 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. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.
Features to choose from
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Key switch and remote operation
- Powder coating to match your shopfront

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Rochdale?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Rochdale. We also cover nearby Heywood, Royton and Middleton.
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.
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.
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.
Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?
Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.
