How does it work across Leicestershire?
Our teams cover Leicester, Loughborough, Hinckley and Coalville and the rest of Leicestershire. If your shop is in a conservation area or a listed building, tell us at the start, because it changes the options. Leicester has its Golden Mile and city-centre streets, and market towns such as Loughborough, Hinckley and Market Harborough have smaller frontages.
What makes the difference?
What electrics are needed?
A power supply near the box, installed by a qualified electrician. We show the position on the drawing.
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.
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.
What are the guide prices?

Will this need planning permission across Leicestershire?
Often not, because the outside does not change, but check with your council if the building is listed. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

Grille or shutter: which is better?
A grille keeps the shop on show and suits lower-risk streets. A shutter gives more protection and hides stock.
