What should you think about first?
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.
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
Do you need consent in Hemel Hempstead?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Dacorum 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 about electric roller shutters in Hemel Hempstead?
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.
Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Hemel Hempstead?
An external shutter usually needs it, and Dacorum Borough Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too.

Does a roller shutter need planning permission?
