What happens in Peterborough?
Peterborough sits in Cambridgeshire, and Peterborough City Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What should you check before you decide?
Can the shutter match my frontage?
Yes. Curtain, box and guides are powder coated to a RAL colour to match your frame as closely as the finish allows.
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.
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.
What should you budget?
| Opening width | Typical unit | Guide price plus VAT |
|---|---|---|
| Up to 3 m | A typical single shop unit | £1,450 to £1,995 |
| 3 to 4 m | A wider single unit | £1,895 to £2,595 |
| 4 to 5 m | A double-fronted or corner unit | £2,395 to £3,195 |
| 5 to 6 m | A large double unit | £2,895 to £3,995 |

An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Peterborough 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.
