Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Kettering
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
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.
Options we can specify
- Key switch and remote operation
- Manual override for power cuts
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance

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 Kettering?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Kettering. We also cover nearby Wellingborough, Corby and Rushden.
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.
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.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
