How does it work in Kendal?
Our surveys in Kendal cover postcodes including LA9, LA8 and LA7, along with Morecambe and Lancaster. Planning applications here go to Westmorland and Furness Council, so it is worth reading any shopfront guidance it publishes before anything is drawn.
What makes the difference?
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.
How does a joint install save trading time?
The frontage and shutter go in as one sequence, so you close once. With two contractors, you close twice and hope they agree on who damaged what.
Can I phase the work?
Yes. If cash flow is tight, we can fit the frontage first and leave the box, guides and power ready for the shutter later.

Do you need consent in Kendal?
An external shutter normally needs planning permission from Westmorland and Furness 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.

Yes. Closed-day or out-of-hours fitting can be arranged.
Who decides planning for a frontage in Kendal?
Westmorland and Furness Council is the planning authority. We tell you at survey what is likely to need consent.

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.
