What is worth knowing before you start?
What will my insurer want?
Some insurers name a shutter type or rating, and many ask for locks and service records. Ask them before you order, as it saves a change later.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
Is it worth repairing an old shutter?
Often, if the curtain and guides are sound. If not, we will price a replacement so that you can compare.
Will this need planning permission in Chigwell?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Epping Forest District Council will normally expect a planning application. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
What do people ask?

Yes. We survey and fit here, and the survey for new work is free.
Which council handles planning in Chigwell?
Epping Forest District Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Chigwell?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Epping Forest District Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
Can you match the shutter to my shopfront?
Yes. We powder coat to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as we can.
