What to know about shutter replacement in South Yorkshire
Like-for-like replacements on existing fixings are usually quicker to fit than new installations. A replacement can move the box behind the fascia for a tidier frontage where the structure allows. 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. If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start.
Options we can specify
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Box relocation where possible

Covering South Yorkshire
We cover South Yorkshire from Sheffield to Rotherham, Doncaster and Barnsley, with 5 towns listed below. Planning decisions for external shutters sit with your local council in England, and we check the position at survey.
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.
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.
Electrical work
Electric shutters are wired to BS 7671, the IET Wiring Regulations. In homes in England, new circuits are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations, so the work is done by a registered electrician who can self-certify it, or notified to building control.
