How does it work in Harrow?
Local rules matter more than people expect. London Borough of Harrow handles planning for Harrow, and its view of external shutters and frontage changes shapes what we recommend.
What should you check before you decide?
How is the shutter controlled?
By key switch, remote or both, and we specify a manual override for power cuts. Keep the override instructions somewhere that staff can find them.
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.
Does a shutter need planning permission?
An external shutter usually does. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. An internal grille or shutter is usually the safer route, so we can advise what to check before you order.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
