Shop front shutters in Solihull: the essentials
Perforated and punched laths are popular on high streets because the window display stays visible when the shop is closed. A powder-coated colour that matches the shopfront helps the shutter look like part of the design rather than an add-on.
Councils generally treat an external shopfront shutter as development that needs planning permission, so the design is chosen with that in mind. Your insurer may specify a minimum standard for out-of-hours protection, so it is worth checking your policy schedule before ordering.
Specification options
- Solid, perforated, punched or open-grille curtains
- Powder coating to match your shopfront
- Manual override for power cuts
- Separate door and window shutters if needed
- Designs chosen around local planning guidance
- Key switch and remote operation

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 Solihull
Do you cover Solihull?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shop front shutters in Solihull and the B91 district, as part of our coverage across West Midlands.
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.
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.
Are your prices fixed?
Yes. After the survey you get a written price for the agreed specification, confirmed before anything is ordered or any work starts. If you change the specification, or a hidden problem such as a weak lintel is found during fitting, we price it and agree it with you before carrying on.
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.
