Shop front shutters in Caterham: the essentials

Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.

Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage.

Options we can specify

  • Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
  • Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
  • Powder coating to match your shopfront
  • Key switch and remote operation
  • Box external, behind the fascia or internal
  • Designs chosen around local planning guidance

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 Caterham

Do you cover Caterham?

Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Caterham. We also cover nearby Coulsdon, Purley and Redhill.

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.

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.

Can I get a quote from photos?

Photos and approximate sizes let us give you a guide price quickly. A survey is still needed before a shutter is made, because it is built to exact measurements.

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.
