How shutter replacement works, and what to ask for
New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork. 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. We price repair and replacement side by side when both are possible, so you can choose.
Features to choose from
- Replacement curtain on existing box and guides
- Removal of the old shutter
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Full strip-out and replacement

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.
How it works

Tell us what the shutter is doing, the make if you know it, and send a photo or video.
Engineer visit
An engineer inspects the shutter, finds the cause and makes it safe.
Fixed repair price
You get the repair price before parts are fitted; simple fixes are often done on the first visit.
Tested and reported
Limits and safety devices are checked, and you get a note of what was done.
Shutter replacement: common questions
Do you cover Gateshead?
Yes. We survey, fit and repair shutter replacement in Gateshead and the NE8 district, as part of our coverage across Tyne and Wear.
Do I need planning permission to replace a shutter?
A like-for-like replacement often does not, but changing the design, colour or position of an external shutter may. We check with you before ordering.
Can I keep my shutter box and just replace the curtain?
Often yes, if the box, barrel and guides are sound. We inspect them and price both options.
Is it worth upgrading when I replace?
It is the cheapest time to add electric operation, perforated laths or insulation, because the work is being done anyway.
Will you take away my old shutter?
Yes. Removal and disposal of an old shutter is included when we quote for a replacement.
Can you fit outside trading hours?
Yes, out-of-hours fitting can be arranged for shops and businesses that cannot close during the day.
