What happens in Sevenoaks?
Sevenoaks sits in Kent, and Sevenoaks District Council is the planning authority. For most shops that means checking consent before the order is placed, not after it.
What should you check before you decide?
Steel or aluminium laths?
Steel is stronger and heavier. Aluminium is lighter and quieter, which helps under flats. Most shops are well served by either.
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.
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.
What should you budget?

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