What to know about shop front shutters in Farnham
Key switch operation means the shutter can only be opened by a key holder standing at the frontage. Graffiti-resistant coatings and perforated laths can reduce the blank 'dead frontage' look that solid shutters create at night.
Takeaways and late-opening shops often choose quieter aluminium curtains to reduce noise for neighbours above. Hiding the shutter box behind the fascia keeps the frontage tidy, and is something many council design guides ask for.
Options we can specify
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Manual override for power cuts
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Box external, behind the fascia or internal

Shop front shutters: common questions
Do you cover Farnham?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Farnham. We also cover nearby Aldershot, Fleet and Farnborough.
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.
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 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.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
