Choosing roller shutter installation for premises in Suffolk

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. Every installation starts with a survey of the opening, structure, power supply and access.

Planning permission and listed building consent are checked before the shutter is ordered. Powered shutters are handed over with user instructions, maintenance guidance and a declaration of conformity.

Covering Suffolk

We cover Suffolk from Ipswich to Lowestoft, Bury St Edmunds and Haverhill, with 8 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.

Before you book in Suffolk

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 paperwork do I get?

Electric shutters are handed over with user instructions, maintenance guidance and a declaration of conformity, which are useful for your records and insurer.

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.

Do you repair shutters fitted by other companies?

Yes. We repair and service most makes of roller shutter, grille and industrial door, whoever fitted them.

How long does it take from order to fitting?

Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
