What to know about shutter replacement in Wiltshire
If the box, barrel and guides are sound, fitting a new curtain can be much cheaper than replacing everything. 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.
A replacement is a chance to upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths. Rust, repeated faults, badly dented laths and outdated controls are common reasons to replace a shutter.
What's included
- Manual to electric at the same time
- Upgrade to perforated, insulated or rated laths

Covering Wiltshire
We cover Wiltshire from Swindon to Salisbury, Trowbridge and Chippenham, with 4 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.

Shutter replacement: common questions
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.
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.
Will you take the old shutter away?
Yes, removal and disposal of the old shutter is included in a full replacement quote.
Do you work with landlords and managing agents?
Yes. We quote, fit and service shutters for landlords, managing agents and facilities teams, including multi-site planned maintenance.
What warranty do I get?
Products carry the manufacturer's warranty, and the warranty for your shutter is set out in your quote.
