How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for
Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter. Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations.
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths.
Options we can specify
- Removal of the old shutter
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Box relocation where possible
- Manual to electric at the same time

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.
