What makes the difference?
Should I choose solid or perforated?
Solid gives more privacy and strength. Perforated keeps the window working at night. On the outside of a shop, some councils resist both, so check before you choose.
Who is responsible if something goes wrong?
One company. Your contract is with S&K Glazing Limited for both parts, so nobody can point at the other contractor.
What does one drawing change?
Everything lines up: door head, guide channels, fascia, sign fixing and power supply. It also gives your council or landlord one clear document to look at.
Will this need planning permission in Braintree?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Braintree District Council. An internal shutter or grille often does not, so it is worth checking before you order. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.

Braintree District Council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.
How much is a shopfront and shutter package in Braintree?
For a unit up to 3 m wide, guide prices start from £3,895 plus VAT. The written quotation after a free site survey sets the final price.
Can you fit a package around my trading hours in Braintree?
Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours fitting can be arranged.
Can the shutter box be hidden?
Usually, yes. When the frontage is new we can build the box in behind the fascia and leave an access panel for servicing. Head height above the door decides how much room there is.
