What to know about shop front shutters in Sandown

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.

Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.

Specification options

  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Key switch and remote operation

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.

Your questions answered

Do you cover Sandown?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sandown. We also cover nearby Ryde, Cowes and Gosport.

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.

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.

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.
