How shop front shutters work, and what to ask for

Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind.

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.

Options we can specify

  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Manual override for power cuts
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront

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.

Before you book in Doncaster

Do you cover Doncaster?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Doncaster. We also cover nearby Rotherham, Pontefract and Chapeltown.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Will you take away my old shutter?

Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
