How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for

A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.

Features to choose from

  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Separate door and window shutters if needed
  • Manual override for power cuts

Shop front shutters: common questions

Do you cover Oadby?

Yes. Oadby (LE2) is within our Leicestershire coverage, along with nearby Wigston, Market Harborough and Loughborough.

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.

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.

What warranty do I get?

Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.

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.
