What to know about shutter replacement in Formby
Replacing an external shutter with a different design may need planning permission, so it is checked first. 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. New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork.
Features to choose from
- Box relocation where possible
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Removal of the old shutter
- Repair and replace priced side by side

Covering Formby and nearby

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.
