Shop front shutters in Hertford: the essentials

Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.

Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

Features to choose from

  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • 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.

How it works

  1. Send the details

    Give us the postcode, approximate width and height, and what the shutter is protecting.

  2. We survey the opening

    An engineer measures and checks the fixings, power and any planning constraints.

  3. You approve a fixed price

    The quote lists the specification and price in writing, so there are no surprises.

  4. We fit and commission

    Your shutter is installed, tested and handed over with instructions and paperwork.

Before you book in Hertford

Do you cover Hertford?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Hertford. We also cover nearby Hoddesdon, Welwyn Garden City and Hatfield.

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 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.

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.

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.

Can you fit outside trading hours?

Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
