Local rules matter more than people expect. Manchester City Council handles planning for Manchester, and its view of external shutters and frontage changes shapes what we recommend.

What should you check before you decide?
What decides the final package price?
Width, height, frame material, curtain type, and whether the box can be hidden. Access and strip-out are the other two things that move the price.
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.
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 Manchester?
Probably, if it is external. Manchester City Council decides. Many councils resist solid external shutters, and some resist perforated ones too. Illuminated signs can need advertisement consent, depending on size, position and area. Listed buildings need listed building consent as well.
