What should you think about first?
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.
What about a fire exit?
A shutter must never trap people in. If it covers an escape route, it needs to be open while the premises are occupied, or opened easily from inside.
Can you repair the frontage too?
Yes. We repair doors, closers, locks, hinges and beads, and glass can be measured at the same visit.
Do you need consent in Hedge End?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Eastleigh Borough 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 Hedge End?
Eastleigh Borough Council. We tell you at survey whether your work needs consent.
How soon can you fit an electric roller shutter in Hedge End?
Lead time is 2 to 3 weeks after survey. We agree the fitting day with you.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Hedge End?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Eastleigh Borough Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.
