How roller shutter installation works, and what to ask for
Every installation starts with a survey of the opening, structure, power supply and access. The shutter is made to the survey measurements, so it fits the opening rather than being adapted on site. After installation, a service plan keeps the shutter safe and running.
Access equipment, road or pavement licences and out-of-hours fitting are arranged where needed. Guides and box are fixed into suitable structure; weak brickwork or timber is reinforced or bridged first.
What's included
- Fixing into suitable structure
- Limits and safety device checks
- Made-to-measure manufacture
- Planning checks before ordering
- Handover pack and keys
- Survey of opening, structure and power

Covering South Glamorgan
We cover South Glamorgan from Cardiff to Barry and Penarth, with 3 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in Wales, and we check the position at survey.
Rules in Wales
Planning permission for shopfront shutters
In Wales an external shopfront shutter normally needs planning permission from your county or county borough council, or the national park authority, and a listed building also needs listed building consent. Welsh councils' design guidance often prefers internal or open-pattern grilles to solid shutters, particularly in conservation areas.
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 Wales, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations as applied in Wales, so the work is self-certified by a registered electrician or notified to building control.
