How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for
Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first. New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork.
A replacement can move the box behind the fascia for a tidier frontage where the structure allows. If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything.
Features to choose from
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Box relocation where possible
- Removal of the old shutter
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Commissioning and safety checks

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.
