What should you think about first?
Do I need a safety edge?
That depends on the risk assessment. Powered shutters near the public are assessed against BS EN 12453, and we quote what the result calls for.
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.
Will I get something in writing?
Yes. A service visit ends with a written condition report that you can keep for your landlord or insurer.
Will this need planning permission in Southampton?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Southampton City Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
