Choosing roller shutter installation for premises in Cornwall
The fixed price is confirmed in writing before any work starts. Every installation starts with a survey of the opening, structure, power supply and access. Guides and box are fixed into suitable structure; weak brickwork or timber is reinforced or bridged first.
Electric shutters are connected by a qualified electrician and commissioned with limits and safety checks. The shutter is made to the survey measurements, so it fits the opening rather than being adapted on site.
Features to choose from
- Survey of opening, structure and power
- Fixing into suitable structure
- Limits and safety device checks
- Handover pack and keys
- Out-of-hours fitting on request
- Electrical connection and commissioning

Covering Cornwall
We cover Cornwall from Truro to Falmouth, St Austell and Truro, with 6 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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.
Safety of powered shutters
Powered doors and shutters are treated as machinery. The installer commissions them with a risk assessment, safety devices where the risk calls for them and force checks to BS EN 12453, then hands over a declaration of conformity and maintenance instructions. In workplaces, the employer or whoever controls the premises must keep doors maintained and safe for staff and visitors.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.

Your questions answered
How long does installation take?
Most single shutters are fitted in a day once made. Large or multiple doors take longer and are scheduled with you.
What happens at the survey?
We measure the opening, check the structure, power supply, access and any planning constraints, and talk through the options. You then get a written fixed price.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close.
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.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
