Shutter replacement in Lancaster: the essentials
We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose. Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations.
Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first. The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement.
Options we can specify
- Removal of the old shutter
- Box relocation where possible
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Full strip-out and replacement

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.
