Shop front shutters in Retford: the essentials
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered.
A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.
Specification options
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Key switch and remote operation
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Separate door and window shutters if needed

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.
