What to know about shop front shutters in Skelmersdale

Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night. Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above.

Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Features to choose from

  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • 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.

Shop front shutters: common questions

Do you cover Skelmersdale?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Skelmersdale. We also cover nearby Ormskirk, Wigan and Kirkby.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.
