What can you expect in Tewkesbury?
Most shop owners come to us at one of three points: a new lease, a break-in, or a frontage that has finally given up. In each case the first step is a survey, and we cover postcodes including GL20.
What should you think about first?
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.
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 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 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 |
Guide prices, not offers. Your written quotation sets the final figure.
Will this need planning permission in Tewkesbury?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Tewkesbury 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.

Yes, by hand, if a manual override is fitted. We specify one on new electric shutters.
