What happens across Lancashire?
We work right across Lancashire, including Preston, Burnley, Blackburn and Blackpool. Rules on frontages and shutters differ from one council to the next. Councils here include Preston, Lancaster and Wyre. Preston, Blackburn and Burnley are the main towns, alongside seaside Blackpool and Lytham St Annes and the stone-built towns of East Lancashire.
What makes the difference?
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 electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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 should you budget?
