We cover Atherton and postcodes including M46, and teams working here can also reach Tyldesley and Westhoughton. Parking, deliveries and pavement space all go into the plan for fitting day.
What makes the difference?
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.
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.
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.
How much will it cost?

Will this need planning permission in Atherton?
Usually yes, if the shutter goes on the outside. External shutters change how the building looks, so Wigan Metropolitan 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.
