What happens in Westhoughton?
Our surveys in Westhoughton cover postcodes including BL5, along with Atherton and Hindley. Planning applications here go to Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What should you think about first?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
How long does a shutter last?
Curtains and guides can last many years with planned servicing. Motors, springs and locks go first, and a busy shop will wear them faster.
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.

Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Bolton Metropolitan Borough Council will normally expect a planning application.
