What can you expect in Harlow?
A frontage in Harlow has to suit the street as well as the shop. Harlow District Council decides what is acceptable where planning applies, so we draw with that in mind.
What is worth knowing?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
Surface box or hidden box?
A surface box under the fascia is quicker and cheaper. A hidden box looks far better, but needs height above the door head and a removable access panel.

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