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. A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths.
The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement. If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything.
What's included
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Box relocation where possible

Rules in England
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.
