Choosing shutter replacement for premises in Barnstaple
Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.
New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.
Options we can specify
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Removal of the old shutter
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Box relocation where possible
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- 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.
