Choosing shutter replacement for premises in West Sussex
If your old shutter was manual, the replacement can be electric from the start. The old shutter is removed and taken away as part of a full replacement. New electric shutters are commissioned with safety checks and handover paperwork.
A replacement can move the box behind the fascia for a tidier frontage where the structure allows. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.
Features to choose from
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths
- Box relocation where possible
- Repair and replace priced side by side
- Full strip-out and replacement
- Commissioning and safety checks
- Removal of the old shutter

Covering West Sussex
We cover West Sussex from Crawley to Worthing, Bognor Regis and Littlehampton, with 9 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.

Questions about shutter replacement in West Sussex
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 the old shutter away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.
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.
How long does it take from order to fitting?
Shutters are made to measure after the survey, so the lead time depends on the product, colour and any security rating. We confirm it in your quote.
What details help you quote quickly?
The postcode, the approximate width and height of the opening, whether you want manual or electric operation, and a photo of the frontage.
