Shop front shutters in Gateshead: the essentials
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.
Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.
What's included
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Key switch and remote operation
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Anti-lift and bottom-rail locks
- Manual override for power cuts

Questions about shop front shutters in Gateshead
Do you cover Gateshead?
Yes. Send the postcode and we will arrange a survey in Gateshead. We also cover nearby Wallsend, Hebburn and Jarrow.
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.
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 your guide prices include VAT?
Guide prices are shown both excluding VAT and including VAT at the standard rate of 20%. For a home, the price including VAT is what you pay.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
