What can you expect in Borehamwood?
A frontage in Borehamwood has to suit the street as well as the shop. Hertsmere Borough Council decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.
What is worth knowing?
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.
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.
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 |

Do you need consent in Borehamwood?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Hertsmere 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.

Do I need planning permission for a shutter in Borehamwood?
