What makes the difference?
Why plan the frontage and shutter together?
Because the shutter box needs a home. Plan it with the fascia and it disappears. Add it later and it usually ends up on the face of the building.
What happens to my old frontage?
If the job is a replacement, removal and disposal are priced on the quotation, and we aim to leave the unit secure or boarded overnight.
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.
Will this need planning permission in Carrickfergus?
Probably, if it is external. Mid and East Antrim Borough Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. In Northern Ireland, councils decide planning applications, and Building Control applications are separate. Listed buildings need listed building consent.
