Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Dover

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.

Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed.

Options we can specify

  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Key switch and remote operation

Rules in England

Electrical work

Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Before you book in Dover

Do you cover Dover?

Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Dover and the CT16 district, as part of our coverage across Kent.

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.

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 your guide prices include VAT?

Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
