What should you check before you decide?
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.
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.
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
Do you need consent in Retford?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Bassetlaw District 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.

Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Retford?

Do electric shutters work in a power cut?
Yes, by hand, if a manual override is fitted. We specify one on new electric shutters.
