What should you think about first?
What does one drawing change?
Everything lines up: door head, guide channels, fascia, sign fixing and power supply. It also gives your council or landlord one clear document to look at.
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives more privacy and strength. Perforated keeps the window working at night. On the outside of a shop, some councils resist both, so check before you choose.
Can you repair the frontage too?
Yes. We repair doors, closers, locks, hinges and beads, and glass can be measured at the same visit.
Will this need planning permission in Darlington?
Probably, if it is external. Darlington Borough Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask?
Do you cover Darlington?
Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Darlington?
Darlington Borough Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Do you cover Darlington for both the shopfront and shutter?

Can you fit a package around my trading hours in Darlington?
