Choosing shop front shutters for premises in Sudbury

Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

A single curtain can cover the window and entrance together, or separate shutters can let you open the door while the window stays covered. Internal shutters behind the glazing protect stock without changing the street view, though they leave the glass exposed.

Options we can specify

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

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.

Questions about shop front shutters in Sudbury

Do you cover Sudbury?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Sudbury. We also cover nearby Colchester, Haverhill and Braintree.

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.

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.

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.

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.
