Roller shutter installation in Rochester: the essentials
Guides and box are fixed into suitable structure; weak brickwork or timber is reinforced or bridged first. The shutter is made to the survey measurements, so it fits the opening rather than being adapted on site.
Electric shutters are connected by a qualified electrician and commissioned with limits and safety checks. After installation, a service plan keeps the shutter safe and running.
What's included
- Survey of opening, structure and power
- Fixing into suitable structure
- Planning checks before ordering
- Electrical connection and commissioning
- Limits and safety device checks
- Out-of-hours fitting on request

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.
