How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for
Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.
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.
What's included
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Key switch and remote operation
- Manual override for power cuts

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.

Your questions answered
Do you cover Shrewsbury?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Shrewsbury and the SY1 district, as part of our coverage across Shropshire.
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.
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.
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.
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.
