What to know about shop front shutters in Eastleigh
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.
A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered. 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
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Separate door and window shutters if needed

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 Eastleigh
Do you cover Eastleigh?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Eastleigh. We also cover nearby Winchester, Totton and Hythe.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
